There are many causes of pulmonary nodules, such as inflammation, tuberculosis, tumors, etc., and there are also a few benign nodules with unknown reasons. If the pulmonary nodules are released during the examination, they must be examined to determine their nature before symptomatic treatment can be carried out. If there is really no way to define its nature, sometimes anti-infection treatment can be considered first. Because inflammatory nodules are still common in clinic, regular observation can also be considered. If the nodule is growing, we need to pay attention. If necessary, we need to make a puncture diagnosis. Of course, we also need to check whether it is tuberculosis first. Finding the reason is the first step. If you have a history of malignant tumor and pulmonary nodules in the past, you must pay attention to it. It may be metastasis.
Don't be too nervous once you find a pulmonary nodule. Generally, benign nodules are more common, while malignant nodules are rare. It is the key to actively cooperate with doctors for examination and treatment, and active treatment may alleviate it.
