Radiologist 's  Response
both the abnormalities mentioned in your report are usually due to inflammation, infection or allergy. no need to worry.
if you feel like having sudden onset of fever, runny/blocked nose, you can take over the counter anti inflammatory drugs like crocin etc. or use vicks rub up balm.
