I'm really worried about my recent x-ray report. It says there's a mild increase in peri hilar bronchovascular markings in both lung fields. Is this something I should be concerned about? I'm not sure how serious this might be. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I've been trying to wrap my head around the possibility of having asthma. I'm 30 and just got some tests done - like the x-ray and CT pulmonary angiogram - and they both came back normal. I also did a Spirometry test, and my FVC and FeV1 values were above 110, which should be a good sign, right? The doc mentioned I have a mild wheezing sound now and then, but not always. I even did a six-minute walking test with jogging, and my spo2 levels before and after were 99 and 98. I usually climb four floors, do brisk walking, jogging, and some skipping exercises without feeling breathless, although sometimes I think I might get breathless, but it never really happens. Should I be worried about asthma, or could it be something else?

do stress test and rule out the other conditions

I've been using the Seroflo 250 Inhaler for a couple of years now because my doctor prescribed it, but I just found out that it contains Fluticasone Propionate, which I heard is a steroid and might not be great for long-term health. I'm kinda worried because whenever I try to stop using it, I start having breathing issues within a couple of days. Is there any inhaler available in India that has only Salbutarol and no steroids?

Hi, using a Seroflo 250 inhaler is essential for controlling asthma or COPD as it contains both a steroid (Fluticasone) to reduce inflammation and a bronchodilator. However, Salbutamol-only inhalers like Asthalin or Levolin are available but are meant for quick relief, not long-term control. Consult your doctor before making any changes to ensure your symptoms stay managed.

I've had an x-ray done today, and it shows that my diaphragm is a bit elevated. I dont have a cough, but I'm feeling some chest pain on the right side when I take a deep breath. I'm a bit worried and am wondering what could be causing this. I don't smoke and I've never had asthma. Do you think this pain will go away on its own? What other issues could this possibly be?

there might be variuos reasons for elevated diaphragm, but seeing your symptoms it might be related to increased liver size, check your bilirubin levels
