Prominent bronchovascular markings and hilar congestion are non-specific X-ray findings and, in a smoker, may be related to smoking-related airway inflammation, bronchitis, or other lung or heart conditions.

Quit smoking completely and consult a pulmonologist for a clinical examination, spirometry, and further evaluation if required.
Health Tips
Seek immediate medical attention if you develop persistent breathlessness, chest pain, coughing up blood, unexplained weight loss, or fever.
