I'm trying to understand my CT scan results. It mentions minimal bilateral apical pleural thickeningscould you help me figure out what this means? Should I be worried about it?

I'm an asthma patient and I've been taking medicines like Montek LC and Seraflow 250mg rotocaps. I started this routine because of frequent asthma attacks since October 2014. Initially, I took them every day for three months, but then moved to only taking them when an attack happens. Lately, I've been having other issues like significant belly swelling, lots of gas, breathing problems, and constipation. Could you please help me understand these symptoms and suggest what I should do?

Namaste, I'm 28 and have had chronic asthma since birth. I usually rely on the Foracort 200mg inhaler, taking one puff every couple of days, and it mostly keeps things in check. Sometimes, I used to take Levolin 10mg if I felt the need. Now, with the COVID-19 vaccinations available like Covishield, Covaxin, or Sputnik, Im wondering if its safe for me to take any of them given my condition and the medication Im on. Is continuing with my inhaler after vaccination okay? Also, should I be worried about possible allergic reactions like wheezing or chest congestion similar to an asthma attack post-vaccination? Would really appreciate some guidance on this.

Patient is advised covishield vaccination intramuscular, 3 doses as complete immunization to the patient. Side-efects like rash,fever,nausea,headache and allergic reactions are fewer side-effects.
