View allI've just got the results from my premedical checkup for a job in the Gulf, and the X-ray showed that I have prominent broncho vascular markings in both lungs. I had a lot of phlegm when I was a kid, but that was sorted out a long time ago. I dont have any signs of tuberculosis or asthma, my weight and appetite are both good, and I havent had any fevers. My doctor said its not a disease, comparing it to a scar from an old injury. What does this mean? Should I be worried or is it nothing to stress over?
Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

I was curious if the lung fibrosis that develops after having COVID is usually restrictive or does it tend to be progressive? I've attached my CT scan report from after my COVID treatment for some context. During my hospital stay, I received remdesivir injections.
Post-COVID lung fibrosis is typically restrictive, meaning it limits lung expansion and reduces lung capacity. However, its progression can vary depending on the severity and individual response to treatment. If you have concerns, please consult your doctor for a more personalized assessment.

I'm really worried about my mom. After she had severe Covid with pneumonia, her HRCT showed ground glass opacity. We did another HRCT later and it mentioned scattered ground glass opacity and something called Koch's lesion. Now, a year later, her CT scan shows a few lung nodules, with the largest being 9mm, and the doctor is suggesting a bronchoscopy. I'm confused and scared about why this is happening. Also, she has severe OSA and uses a machine at night. Could you help me understand what's going on and why the bronchoscopy is needed?
there is still infection persisting in lung. since there's a nodule ,need to rule out other causes soo better proceed for bronchoscopy
