What Does The Following X-ray Report Suggest?

I have got the X-ray report for my son (8 year old). The reports shows; Few fibro-nodular opacities are seen in the right mid zone. Bronchovascular markings are prominent in bilateral lower zones. Rest of the lung fields are normal. Heart and aorta appears normal. Both costophrenic angles are clear. Both the domes of diaphragm are smooth. Please suggest.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
The X-ray looks almost normal and nothing to worry in it. There are some fibronodular(scarring) lesions detected. These indicates old and healed diseases and not an active disease process. Increased bronchovascular markings are non specific finding and its quite common after an infection, no treatment is required. All other parameters are normal.
If he develop symptoms like cough or breathlessness consult a pulmonologist and get evaluated.
Thanks
Dr Shinas Hussain
