I've been told I have a prominent hilar shadow and bronchovascular marking in both of my lungs. I'm really curious about what that means for my health and what steps I should take next. Can you help explain these terms and suggest what should be done about this?

A prominent hilar shadow and bronchovascular markings on both lungs can indicate inflammation or changes in the lung structures. It's important to follow up with a chest X-ray or CT scan and consult a pulmonologist for a comprehensive evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions such as infections or lung disease.

I've been experiencing this bizarre sensation latelywhenever I try to lift something heavy, my lungs start to hurt and my breathing gets all rapid. It feels like my lungs are almost trying to escape out my mouth, and it's honestly pretty scary. Could you recommend any effective medication to help with this? I'm looking for some relief and would appreciate your advice.
Experiencing pain and rapid breathing when lifting heavy objects could be related to several factors, including musculoskeletal strain, improper lifting techniques, or underlying respiratory issues. While medication can help manage symptoms, its important to identify and address the root cause. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation to determine the exact cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, consider avoiding heavy lifting, using proper lifting techniques, and practicing deep breathing exercises to help manage your symptoms. Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen may provide temporary relief, but please consult your doctor before taking any medication.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 49 and dealing with a thyroid problem, but now she's tested positive for Covid. Her HR CT report seems fine, and she's mainly experiencing weakness and a bit of a dry cough. Her oxygen levels are usually between 93 to 98 during the day, but at night while she's sleeping, her spo2 level drops quickly to around 80-85, which is pretty alarming. We end up waking her up, and then her spo2 levels return to normal. Could this be because of Covid? Should I be worried? What should we do if this happens again?
