How To Treat Markings On The Lungs?

HI , Last week i have gone through the medical tests , suffering from chest pain , pain in ribs . in the chesy X-ray i noticed "Promient bronchovascular markings in the right lung" and Doctor recommended some test PFT . after looking at the report .confirmed that its an early stages of Asthma /infection .



I ,am really worried about markings on the lungs ,since these symptoms are similar to lung cancer.

Hi thanks for asking question.

Don't worry about cancer.Here it doesn't seems cancer...Mass is not present ...so..

If no symptoms then no need for much worry.
Yes in viral pneumonia or bronchitis or asthma can give such finding.

If you have dyspnea then we can start treatment for asthma if needed...

Just now if no symptoms then no worry.
CBC done.If show neutrophilia we will start antibiotic ....

Meanwhile if respiratory symptoms occur contact doctor.

Hope your concern solved.
