Hello and thank you for asking in Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern and I find it right. In my opinion in your case the most important thing is that you have to do that sputum test to be sure that you are not contagious anymore which means that you are not ill. For the scar in the lungs I do not think that there is anything to do, but this is not so important. For free moving you have to be sputum negative for Tuberculosis. So I wish you good health. Thank you Chat Doctor.
