Question: Dear Doctor, Recently i had mild cough for 4 days .I took some cough syrup and it subsided on 4 th day. On that day i just gone for a chest pa view, to see whether all is well with my lungs.The radiology report is as under: Patient mildly rotated to left side. Heart and aorta are normal Prominent bronchovascular markings seen in bilateral lung fields -likely age related Elevated right dome of diaphragm seen-?significance (No prev x ray) Both hila , costophrenic angles and left dome of diaphhragm are normal. Bomy cage is normal. Impression: Elevated right dome of diaphragm-significance? Now i am a totally vegetarian, non smoker and teetotaller. I walk for 4km every day for the past 30 years. I never had fatigue,loss of strength, rundown condition or weakness at any time . I have never had fever in the last 8 years. Never had cough in the past 4 years. Food intake.: Morning 3 idlys . at 1pm little rice and vegetables and rasam.I eat very little. always half full stomach.again at 8 pm 2 pulkas or 2 chapatis and a glass of buttermilk.thats all. Since i had minneres disease in my left ear and experienced vertigo i for the past 2 years sleeping on the opposite side without turning to the left side. This is just for your info. Now i read that this elevated diaphragm is very rare. Since i have no discomfort or what soever can i simply ignore this?
