I'm 39 and recently, like about 20 days ago, I've been having some issues with my breathing because of a cold. I got an X-ray done and it showed something like "bilateral hilar prominence." What does that mean? Should I be worried? What's the best thing to do next?

View allI'm really confused and a bit worried. My chest X-ray is normal, but I'm still coughing up dark red blood. Sometimes it's less, and the blood is mixed with a yellowish color. I haven't had any chest pain or heart issues before. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?
Congratulations on this exciting possibility! Home pregnancy tests (HPTs) like Prega News are reliable and convenient. HPTs detect human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. If the result is: - Positive: Confirm with a healthcare provider. - Negative: Wait a few days and retest if still experiencing symptoms. Lab tests (urine or blood) offer higher sensitivity, but HPTs are a great first step.

My wife has been dealing with shortness of breath for about 8 months, and it's getting really bad now. She can't even sit still for 5 minutes without a fan or some air. What could be causing this, and is it something that can be cured? We're trying to find a solution quickly, so I'd appreciate any advice.

What is meant by pleural-based homogeneous soft tissue opacities? I got my CT scan report, and it mentions two pleural-based homogeneous soft tissue opacities. One is about 44.7mm by 18.3mm in the posterior lateral basal segment and another 55.5mm by 26mm in the posterior and medial basal segment of the right lower lobe. Theres also a smaller one, about 12.5mm by 3.9mm in the superior segment of the left lower lobe. The report says there's no calcification or lucent areas in the masses, and no hilar lymphadenopathy or pleural effusion, thickening, or calcification. Could you help me understand what all this means?
there might be fibrosis at that point of lung ,that refers to opacities
