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've been on ATT for pulmonary Kochs diagnosed 3 months ago. My initial chest X-ray looked fine, but the CT scan showed the infection. The Montox test was positive with a 20mm induration. For my latest review, I had a chest X-ray, and it showed prominent bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what this means? Also, I've been experiencing leg pain, especially in my knees and ankles. Is this something I should be worried about?
Do not panic it takes time complete the entire course of ATT and visit your Physician regularly for followup,consume balanced diet and stay hydrated.

I'm currently on ATT since July 7th because I got drug-induced hepatitis from pyrizinamide. The treatment has been going on without pyrizinamide now, but today I noticed some swelling on my face around both sides of my nose in the cheek area. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
drug allergy or over dose

I'm really worried about my dad. He was discharged from the hospital about 10 days ago and he's still on 2 liters of oxygen because his left lung got pretty damaged from COVID. I'm wondering how long he might need to stay on oxygen. If we take it off for about 30 minutes, his saturation levels drop to 80-85, should we be concerned? How long do you think it'll take for him to recover?
he might be having chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, there's no particular time for him to quit oxygen. he might need it for years
