I'm looking at my X-ray report, and I'm pretty concerned. It mentions that the right hilar vascular marking is prominent, and for the cardiac area, it's not clear if it's normal or not. Plus, the CP angles are hazy. I'm really wondering if these findings are normal or if there's something I should be worried about health-wise. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my health situation. I had a lump on the right side of my neck and got an FNAC done, which pointed to tuberculosis. I went ahead with a Mantoux test, and it came back with a really large red induration, like 29mm. My chest X-ray shows bilateral hilar prominence, and my ESR is raised too. But here's the thing, I don't have any symptoms - no weakness, no cough, nothing at all. What's going on? Should I be concerned even without symptoms?

without symptoms also tuberculosis will be present

I'm waking up in the mornings and noticing a bit of blood when I spit out cough. It's not a lot, but it's still concerning. Should I be worried? Could it be something serious?
