Hello,
Increased bronchovascular markings may be a sign of pulmonary or cardiac disease as well as a common finding that have no meaning. I don't think it has to do with the pneumothorax of the past. I suggest you to take a complete blood count to see for a possible infection and echocardiography to exclude a cardiac problem.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
