Hi, Thanks for using HCM.


Prominent bilateral bronchovascular prominence means either infection in respiratory passages or fluid overload. Infection may be acute or chronic. If radiologist reports increased bronchovascular markings but clinical situation is not supporting any thing it can be ignored and film should be taken as normal. As you are already on antibiotic continue them, If your symptoms does not improve with that need to take antibiotic according to antibiotic sensitivity report. Better to get cardiac examination done.

Hope this helps you.
