A 26 year old male patient came in with H/O acute right hypochondriac pain. Right basal rhonchii++. Hence, treated for CAP. Chest X-ray showed lower right consolidation. After 2 days, haemoptysis started. Got all TB tests done (Genexpert and TB gold as well), but all are negative. Meanwhile stepped up antibiotics. He was good for a month.
