I've recently had a chest PA and it showed increased bronchovascular markings and a prominent hila. I'm kind of worried about what this means. Is it normal to see these in the results, or should I be concerned about any potential health issues?

I've been told that my X-ray shows bilateral prominent hila with prominent bronchovascular markings in both of my lung fields. Is this something I should be worried about? What does it mean for my health? I've also been experiencing shortness of breath for the past 10 days. Could this be related? How can I address these issues?

For a 2-year-old child, the recommended daily intake of Vitamin D3 is 600-800 IU (International Units) per day. _Giving 400 IUmL (1 mLday) is within the safe range_. However, it's essential to monitor your child's Vitamin D levels and adjust the dosage accordingly. Excessive Vitamin D intake can lead to toxicity, causing symptoms like: 1. Nausea and vomiting 2. Abdominal pain 3. Headache 4. Fatigue 5. Weakness To ensure safety: 1. _Consult your pediatrician_: Before giving your child any supplements, consult with your pediatrician to determine the best course of action. 2. _Monitor Vitamin D levels_: Regularly check your child's Vitamin D levels to avoid over-supplementation. 3. _Follow the recommended dosage_: Adhere to the recommended dosage, and avoid exceeding it.

I'm a bit worried because my HRCT shows I've got minimal pleural effusion on both sides. Most of my tests like CBC, thyroid, serum creatinine, serum uric acid, and CRP came back normal, but my ESR is 34. With this minimal pleural effusion, do you think I need pleural tapping? Plus, I'm dealing with some pain in my upper chest wall and upper back. Would love to get your thoughts on this.

pleural tapping is not required
