Question

I'm really worried about this sharp, razor blade feeling Ive been having in my lungs, especially when I cough. Its a constant pain, but at the same time, it feels inconstant, if that makes sense. And on top of that, I've been running a high fever. I haven't consulted a doctor yet, but should I be urgently concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?

Question

I'm dealing with a cold that's been giving me the occasional sneeze and a sore throat, plus sometimes I notice some mucus, which is generally transparent. I'm also experiencing shortness of breath, a heavy feeling in my chest, and generally feeling pretty fatigued. Can you advise me on what might be going on or suggest any steps I should take?

Question

I'm planning a trip to the Gulf, and I just got my chest X-ray report back. It mentions something about prominent broncho vascular markings. I'm not sure what that means, and I'm concerned about whether it could cause any issues in my medical consultation or during my trip. Is this something serious? Can it be treated or managed somehow?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my 14-year-old son. His recent CT scan mentioned something about small subsegmental atelectasis in the anterior segment of his right upper lobe. Is this something minor or more serious? Does he need any medication for it? Also, the scan said that the tracheobronchial tree is normal, and there are no signs of Covid pneumonia with a CORADS score of 1. The CT severity score is 0 too. What do you think, should I be concerned?
