Question

My father-in-law just had a chest X-ray today and the report mentioned something about prominent bronchovascular markings in his lung field. Could you help me understand what this means? Is there any chance this could be a sign of something chronic?

Question

Hey, so I've been having this recurring issue with a cough ever since I had a chest infection back in August 2019. The doctors initially gave me some antibiotics, Augmentin, for 5 days but my cough didn't go away completely. After that, I was on monocef and dexona injections for another 5 days, which did help. But ever since then, my cough keeps coming back sometimes. It's weird because it happens in the morning or just randomly without any trigger, and I'm super careful about avoiding chilled stuff. I had some tests done, and while my CBC was fine, my lymphocytes were a bit high, and my IgE levels were elevated too. Based on this, the doctor suggested it might be allergies and prescribed montelukast and levocetirizine. My x-ray and PFT were fine too. Even after the medication, the cough shows up without warning and then disappears on its own. It's really frustrating, and I'm wondering if there's something more I should be doing to deal with this cough and maybe even bring down the IgE levels. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I've been feeling kind of worried since yesterday. I was spray painting my bathroom cabinet for around 5 to 10 minutes, and I didn't use a mask. About 20 minutes later, I started feeling short of breath. Today, I'm still experiencing some shortness of breath, though not as intense as before, and there's a bit of coughing. A friend gave me some cough drops which helped a bit, but I'm concerned if I should just wait it out a few more days or if it's necessary to head to the hospital. What do you think?
