I recently got the results from my chest x-ray, and there's a note about increased right basal markings and something called pneumonitis, non-specific. Everything else seems clear. Can you help me understand what this means? Is there a chance I'm starting to develop pneumonitis?

View allI've been dealing with a lot of extra sputum all day for about six months now, and every now and then I find myself needing to take deep breaths. After exercising, I get this itchy feeling in my throat like something's stuck there. There's no fever, chest pain, coughing, or weight loss, but my nose is always congested and I find myself taking deep breaths throughout the day. It seems to calm down at night though. I'm wondering what's going on.
Ecg,x-ray chest pa view,sputum for AFB and microscopy and spirometry is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a cough that started a couple of months ago after I had a cold. I went to the clinic and got some medicine, but the cough stayed, and theres been this weird sound coming from my chest. I visited the doctor again about two weeks ago, and he mentioned it was an infection and gave me syrup and some pills, but it hasn't cleared up. After eating meals, I notice white mucus fills my chest, and I have to cough it up right after eating. Plus, when I play football for about an hour, the cough kicks in, and I start feeling really fatigued. What's going on here, and how can I get back to feeling healthy again?
Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.

I'm really worried because my parents and I have been dealing with COVID for two weeks now, and we're still coughing a lot. We've been taking ascoril ls, doxt t, and montaire LC, but it doesn't seem to help much. I've heard about getting an HR Chest CT Scan, and I'm wondering if I can get a doctor to prescribe it. Is it something we should consider?
you should consult a pulmonologist or physician and get a prescription for hrct
