Lung infection: It is an inflammation at the bottom of the right side of your lungs. Usually it is caused by a bacterial infection, but it can also occur due to viral infection, aspiration, tuberculosis, and other lung irritants. Most of the time antibiotics will effectively resolve it, unless it's due to one of the other causes.
