[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, possibility of either allergic bronchitis or asthma is more in your case. Bronchovascular marking prominence (prominent BVM) is commonly seen in these two conditions. Prominent BV is not serious condition. It denotes inflammation in the lungs. So in my opinion, you should definitely consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system. 2. PUT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will improve with inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid. Oral combination of antihistamine and anti-allergic Chat Doctor.  So consult pulmonologist, first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Don't worry about prominent BVM. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
