Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have gone through your X-ray and I can understand your concerns.

Your X-ray looks almost normal and nothing to worry in it.
Prominent BVM(Broncho vascular markings) is quite common after an episode of minor lung infection or pneumonia.
Bronchovascular Markings are caused by major blood vessels of lung, mainly veins. Prominent means generally Infection in respiratory passages or fluid in the lungs.
Most cases revert to normal in two weeks. Since you are asymptomatic,you don't need any treatment and film should be taken as normal.

Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
Dr.Shinas Hussain
