I'm really worried about my father. He has this mass lesion, about 2.7cm wide, on his left upper lobe, and they said it's TB. Once we start the ATT treatment, how long does it usually take for the size to start shrinking? Also, what kind of size reduction can we actually expect?

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really curious about the results of my chest X-ray. The doctor mentioned something about increased bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what that actually means? Is it something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal?

Prominent bronchovascular markings is suggestive of asthma,pneumonia,heart failure or pleural effusion etc.

I've had a cough and minor fever that started about 10 days ago. I took some medicine for it, but my cough still hasn't gotten any better. The fever usually kicks in during the evening, but not so much in the noon. Lately, my cough has gotten really bad, and it's so intense sometimes that it makes me vomit. I've also noticed a bit of blood in the mornings after coughing. The cough feels like it's coming from my chest rather than my throat. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

do chest xray and sputum test
