Brief Answer:
Inflammation of the larger airways of lungs.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

These changes probably reflect features of CHronic bronchitis.

This is inflammation of the larger airways of lungs.

Such changes usually result from smoking or lung infection.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
