I'm curious about something. I've had asthma allergic rhinitis for the past two years, but before all that started, I was able to donate blood. Do you think it's still okay for me to give blood now?

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a cough for the past 23 months. I've seen a few doctors, but nothing seems to be improving. It's really frustrating. Can you tell me what might be going on or suggest what I should try next?

Is there anything critical in my report? I'm worried because it mentions both hila are congested, but everything else seems normal like the cardiac shadow and costophrenic angles. Should I be concerned about the hila congestion? What does this mean for my overall lung health?

BOTH HILA ARE CONGESTED.THIS IS A POSITIVE FINDING. THIS MUST BE TAKEN CARE. DO YOU HAVE CONSENT COUGH? ARE YOU A SMOKER OR OCCASIONAL ALCOHOLIC? NEED PROPER EXAMINATION BY PULMONOLOGIST
