What Does The Chest X-ray Report Indicate?

Hi, my four year old daughter has had pneumonia twice in the past and she has been very ill again, a chest xray was taken and says there s no pneumonia but there s coarsening to the broncho vascular markings throughout the lungs (particularly on left side) where there is bronchial wall thickening. Please let me know if this is serious
