Hi,
Thanks for posting the query on XXXXXXX After going through the query, I would like to comment the following:

1. The chest Xray is suggestive of prominent bronchovascular markings. It is sometimes seen as a normal finding in old aged patient. It may also be seen in bronchitis . The fibrotic lesions are suggestive of previously healed infection.

2. It all depends on your clinical symptoms. If you are asymptomatic then non need to worry.

I hope I have answered your query. I will be glad to answer follow up queries if any.
