I'm a bit worried after my recent chest x-ray which showed prominent bronchovascular markings. I've been dealing with allergic bronchitis and I'm wondering if that's the reason behind these markings. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Prominent bronchovascular markings on a chest X-ray can be seen in various conditions, including allergic bronchitis, asthma, and chronic bronchitis; in your case, allergic bronchitis is a likely contributor, but it's essential to follow up with your doctor to monitor symptoms and adjust treatment as needed, and to rule out other potential causes

I've been spitting up white mucus throughout the day, and I'm a bit concerned. I'm a smoker, and I used to smoke 5 cigarettes a day, but I've cut it down to 2 now. Lately, I've noticed this white mucus, especially in the morning, and one morning it even looked black. Could this be related to my smoking, or is it something else I should be worried about?

I've been feeling really sleepy all day even though I get a good night's sleep. My parents have mentioned that my breathing stops for a few seconds while I'm asleep, and I also have a snoring problem. Could these things be related to why I'm so tired? What might be causing it?
