I'm on TB treatment and have been for 35 days without any issues, but all of a sudden, I started coughing up blood in the last couple of days. I'm really not sure what's going on and it's making me quite anxious. Could you help me understand why this might be happening?

View allI've recently had an HRCT chest scan and it mentions bilateral minimal pleural effusion and infective etiology with a CO-RADS score of 2. Can you tell me if this is something serious or is it treatable? Also, I've had three head CT scans, two of which were done just two weeks apart back in 2018, and then another HRCT scan plus a few X-rays in 2020two for my chest and one for my throat. I'm kind of worried about whether all these scans could make me prone to cancer or cause any cell damage in the future. I'm a 27-year-old female and this is really concerning to me. What do you think?

I was curious if the lung fibrosis that develops after having COVID is usually restrictive or does it tend to be progressive? I've attached my CT scan report from after my COVID treatment for some context. During my hospital stay, I received remdesivir injections.
Post-COVID lung fibrosis is typically restrictive, meaning it limits lung expansion and reduces lung capacity. However, its progression can vary depending on the severity and individual response to treatment. If you have concerns, please consult your doctor for a more personalized assessment.
