I'm having trouble breathing for the past three days, and it's been a bit strange because sometimes it seems to get better for a while, but mostly it's still there. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?

I recently had a chest x-ray because I felt like my lung capacity isn't what it used to be. The results mentioned something about prominent bronchovascular markings, but everything else seems normal. Should I be worried about this at all?
