I'm a bit concerned after hearing that my recent chest X-ray showed prominent bronchovascular markings in my lungs. Could you explain what this means and how it might affect my health? Also, what sort of treatment should I be considering? I'm feeling a bit worried and would appreciate some guidance.

I'm a bit concerned about my health after having a cold. My antigen test came back negative, and I've noticed my respiration rate is 14, and my SpO2 has dropped to 95 from 99 before the cold. Im wondering if the lower SpO2 could be related to the cold since I dont have fever or body aches. Could you give me some insight into this?

nothing to worry, continue the treatment
