I recently tested positive for COVID-19 on April 16th and after treatment, I got a negative result on May 8th. However, I'm now experiencing some breathing issues. My average O2 saturation levels are around 97-98. Should I be considering any kind of scan or is there something specific I should be doing?

View allI've been dealing with a cough for the past month and my fever keeps hovering between 102 and 104. I just got my test results back: my Mentaux test is positive and my chest X-ray shows some bronchetactics changes in the left upper-mid zone. There's also been mention of bronchial wall thickening and nodular densities in the upper zone. The report says it could be an infectious or inflammatory issue. I'm really worriedis this something serious that needs immediate attention, or is it likely to improve on its own? Any advice on how to handle this would be really appreciated.

I'm really worried because during my GAMMCA medical checkup for the Gulf, a scar showed up on my chest x-ray. The doctor mentioned that this doesn't align with the Gulf medical council's rules, but also said I don't have any health issues from it. Is there any way to get rid of the scar with medication? I'm really hoping it wont affect my chances. Any advice?
A chest scar seen on an X-ray is usually due to a past infection, like tuberculosis, and cannot be removed with medicine as it is permanent lung tissue damage. However, you can consult a pulmonologist for a second opinion or additional tests to rule out active issues.

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
