Can you help me understand what's going on with my lungs? My report mentioned that the bronchovascular field is prominent in the bilateral lung fields, and there are some small calcific foci in the right lung field. I've also noticed a little sputum forming and coming out. Should I be worried about these findings?

I've been dealing with this issue where I cough up phlegm every morning, and it's been flaring up again after I caught COVID. This was under control before I got sick, but now it's back again. Especially after I eat, it feels like it gets worse. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this?

I've been experiencing shortness of breath lately. I went to see a doctor, and they did a chest X-ray which came back clear, and the doctor also did a PFT, mentioning it wasn't too bad. But I still feel like I can't catch my breath, and it's really worrying me. I'm wondering if this could all just be in my head or if there's something else going on. What do you think?
Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.
