I'm really curious about the results of my chest X-ray. The doctor mentioned something about increased bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what that actually means? Is it something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal?

Prominent bronchovascular markings is suggestive of asthma,pneumonia,heart failure or pleural effusion etc.

View allI'm trying to understand the details of my recent report. It mentions my heart size is normal, my lungs show prominent broncho vascular markings, and both domes and costophrenic angles are clear. Can you explain what this all means and if theres anything I should be concerned about?
means normal report..but has to be clinically correlated..

I've been noticing these weird gelatin-like balls whenever I cough, and they come in different colors. I'm also experiencing some chest tightness and wheezing. What could be causing this, and is it something serious I should be worried about?
Coughing up clear jelly balls may be caused by a buildup of mucus in the airways. This may occur due to allergies or infections such as common colds or flu, accompanied with dehydration. If symptoms continue for more than a few weeks, it is best to contact a doctor to find out the cause and get treatment. If the color of the mucus resembles yellow or greenish mucus, it may be indicative of a bacterial infection, which may require antibiotic therapy.

I'm a 22-year-old guy, and I've been smoking for the past year. I've had this chest pain for about 8 months now. I went to a cardiologist, and my cholesterol was high. He told me to lower it, which I did in a month, but the chest pain is still there. I went through ECG, echo, TMT, and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. The cardiologist said my heart's fine, but I still feel this pain. It's worse when I bend forward or take a deep breath, and its around the center and left side of my chest. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I be considering a chest CT scan? The cardiologist told me to just ignore the pain and said its not heart-related. I already quit smoking and changed my diet, but the pain hasn't gone away. What should my next step be?
do CT scan and review
