Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Tuberculosis heals by fibrosis and calcification after treatment. Your current x-ray findings are more suggestive of old healed lesions. So no need to directly start anti-tubercular Chat Doctor. Get done CT thorax and bronchoscopy. Of both these are normal then no need to worry about active tuberculosis. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
