So, I just got the results from a chest x-ray and it says I have "prominent bronchovascular markings." Everything else seems normal, but should I be concerned about this? What does it even mean?

increased bronchovascular markings may be a common finding in chest x ray because of pollution and minor cold like infections...usually it is nothing to worry about but definitely better to get yourself examined...its always better the examination findings with the investigation findings as together only they give a better impression

I've tested positive for COVID and my chest X-ray AP view shows a mild elevation of the left hemidiaphragm. What does that mean for my health, and what should I do next? I'm really anxious about this and could use some guidance.

I'm having trouble with my breathing and it's been going on for about two months now. My chest X-ray came out clear, but I've also been dealing with a sore throat and no fever. My temperature is normal. I'm obese with a BMI of 34, and I'm really worried about my breathing issues. My SpO2 levels range between 96 and 99. My grandma has asthma, so I'm wondering if there's a connection. Im using the Seroflo 250 inhaler and Ezicas nasal spray, but Im not sure if I need to do more. Ive got a PFT report from a year ago, and my peak flow meter always reads above 500. Could any of this relate to my breathing difficulties, and what can I do to improve this situation?

Yes,continue all the medications.

My cough's been lingering ever since I had COVID three months ago. It comes with mucus and now isn't going away. I've tried antibiotics, anti-allergic meds, and syrups, which seemed to work while I was taking them, but the cough just keeps coming back once I stop. I've had tests like chest X-rays and RTPCRs, and everything looks fine, so that's a relief, but the cough is driving me nuts. I've been prescribed a bunch of medications like Augmentin, Levomac, and Montemac, but I don't see much improvement. I'm beginning to wonder if this is normal. Could it be some kind of long-term COVID effect or allergy issue? I'm really looking for some guidance on what steps to take next.

Yes,continue all the medications as advised by the physician.
