What are some potential issues with displaying images from a MySQL database using PHP?

One potential issue with displaying images from a MySQL database using PHP is that the images may not be stored directly in the database but rather as file paths. To display these images, you would need to retrieve the file path from the database and then use PHP to output the image using the appropriate HTML tags. 

<?php
// Retrieve the file path from the database
$image_path = "path/to/image.jpg";

// Output the image using HTML img tag
echo "<img src='$image_path' alt='Image'>";
?>
