Can you help me understand what's going on with my lungs? My report mentioned that the bronchovascular field is prominent in the bilateral lung fields, and there are some small calcific foci in the right lung field. I've also noticed a little sputum forming and coming out. Should I be worried about these findings?

View allI've been having shortness of breath for the past two months and it started really suddenly. At first, I was also dealing with back pain and lung pain along with a feeling of tightness. Now it's mostly just the shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my left lung. My lung X-ray came back normal and the EEG report was fine too. The doctor didn't prescribe any medicine, but I'm still struggling with shortness of breath. What could be going on, and should I be concerned about this?
Patient is advised pulmonary function test (PFT)and a complete blood count and esr.

I've been dealing with chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and lately, I've noticed some changes. My oxygen level sticks around 96-98, which is pretty normal for me, but a month ago, I got hit with COVID. During that time, I was mostly coughing with phlegm and felt really tired, but not much else. Now that I've recovered from COVID, I'm still feeling really worn out. I'm having a dry cough about 6-7 times a day, which never happened to me before, and my chest hurts a bit when I yawn. Plus, I've started feeling a bit of difficulty in breathing that lasts for 3-5 seconds. I used to be perfectly fine before all this. Any idea what's going on?

I'm really worried about my lungs as I've been a smoker, but I quit. I haven't had breathing issues so far, but I'm concerned they might pop up in the future. I do yoga and breathing exercises regularlycan those help repair my damaged cilia, or should I see a pulmonologist? Are there any pre-treatments available? I'd appreciate any advice you can offer.
Do regular exercises you will be fine
