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 just got the results from my recent chest CT scan, and it's mentioned that there are fibrotic scars in the left upper lobe of my lung with post-inflammatory sequel changes. I'm a bit worried and curious if this is something serious or could it be considered normal?

Fibrotic scars in the left upper lobe of your lung, described as post-inflammatory sequelae, typically result from past infections or inflammation. While it's not uncommon, its important to monitor and follow up with your doctor for any further management or assessment to ensure it doesn't affect your lung function.

I'm really concerned about my wife. She's 32, doesn't smoke, and has had this persistent dry cough for almost a month now. It's like clockworkevery 30 minutes, and the coughing lasts about 4 to 5 seconds. We've already seen a pulmonary specialist. The first time, he prescribed some antibiotics, and then after two weeks, they did an X-ray, which came back normal. The doctor switched up the meds after that. It got slightly better for a bit, but for the last 4 days, the cough has returned, especially when she's lying down. I'm attaching the last prescription we received for reference. Right now, she's only using an inhaler twice a day as the rest of the medication course has ended. Could you give us any advice on what might be happening or what we should do next?

use tablet tusq for 5 days continously
