Hey, I got my x-ray results back and it mentions "bronchovascular marking prominent." I'm a bit concerned and not sure what that means. Could you help me understand what might be going on or if it's something I should worry about?

The prominent bronchovascular marking seen in your x-ray report indicates increased markings of the blood vessels and bronchial tubes in your lungs. This can be a normal finding or may indicate conditions such as infection, inflammation, or fluid accumulation in the lungs. To provide a specific recommendation, it is important to determine the underlying cause of the prominent bronchovascular marking. I recommend further evaluation by a healthcare professional, such as a pulmonologist, who may suggest additional tests or imaging studies to make a definitive diagnosis. In the meantime, you can try over-the-counter cough suppressants like Dextromethorphan (e.g., Robitussin) to help with any associated cough. However, it is important to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the package.

View allI've been having some serious problems lately with throwing up right after I eat, and I keep getting these bouts of dry cough and cold. My recent X-ray showed something about 'moderate prominent broncho vascular markings'. What does that mean? Should I be worried about it? And could all of these symptoms be connected somehow? I'm really worried and would love your insight.
Could be indicative of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and possible respiratory infection. For the vomiting, you can take Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. For the dry cough and cold symptoms, you can take Levocetirizine (brand name Xyzal) 5mg once daily at bedtime. It is also important to stay hydrated and avoid triggers that worsen your symptoms.

I'm really worried about my mom; she's 55 and her recent CT scan showed a severity score of 13. The report mentioned something about "ground glass opacity" in her lungs, possibly suggesting viral pneumonitis. Does this mean she has a severe case of COVID?
