How to treat pulmonary nodules?

Traditional Chinese medicine ** pulmonary nodules, according to the syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine prescriptions can be selected, such as lung adjustment decoction and relieves depression and tackling tough soup, licorice and ginger soup, Maimendong soup, etc.

Traditional Chinese medicine classifies pulmonary nodules into the category of "lung accumulation", and believes that their pathogenesis is qi stagnation, phlegm coagulation, dampness resistance, and blood stasis cementing each other to form an accumulation in the lungs, and is related to the dysfunction of the five internal organs and the disorder of qi, blood and fluid. Therefore, TCM is based on the principle of removing pathological products and restoring the functions of the five organs, following the guidance of the basic theory of TCM, and selecting TCM prescriptions according to the dialectical analysis of syndrome manifestations.

If pulmonary nodules are accompanied by symptoms such as decreased appetite, dizziness and fatigue, local pain, sweating and dyspnea, such as liver qi stagnation (liver qi is not smooth), you can take Lung Regulating Decoction and Jie Yu Jiao Decoction to dissipate the knots (dissipate the pathological products of stagnation) and at the same time relieve the liver and relieve depression (relieve liver qi and dissolve depressed qi).

Lung Qi can not be promoted, the qi is unfavorable, and the lung Yang (Hot Yang) Qi (function) is not excited, which can be manifested as coughing and salivation, more phlegm and salivation, body fat, difficulty in stool, and large pulse, etc., you can use licorice and ginger soup to invigorate and promote lung qi, Maimendong soup to nourish the lungs and restore the function of the lungs.

If you have any uncomfortable symptoms, please seek medical attention in time, and it is recommended that the medicine should be used under the guidance of a doctor.

Disease analysis: lung nodules, if you use traditional Chinese medicine to **, you can first choose according to your own condition, patients can choose ephedra and almonds, you can also add Chuanbei and Digupi. Or add Banxia and Tianlong, these drugs can play a role in controlling lung nodules.

However, you must be cautious when using drugs and do not increase the dosage without authorization.

** can be given to replenish qi, blood circulation and blood stasis, soft and hard to disperse knots, qi drugs include astragalus, codonopsis, prince ginseng, ginseng, cordyceps, etc., lung moisturizing drugs include yam, lily, wheat winter, etc., blood circulation and blood stasis drugs include salvia, Chuanxiong, Dilong, leech, scorpion, centipede, etc.

Chinese patent medicine needs to contain drugs that contain insects, including Tongxinluo capsules, rhubarb stinging insect pills, etc., the effect is relatively good, which can play a role in softening and dispersing knots, so as to ** lung nodules.

Most of the early symptoms of pulmonary nodules are mild, or even have no corresponding clinical manifestations, and are only found during physical examination. In this case, if a pulmonary nodule is found, a standardized evaluation should be performed, such as a high-resolution CT examination of the lungs, and a follow-up or ** return plan should be decided according to the shape and size of the nodule. When the nodule is manifested as burrs, lobulation, and other signs of malignant tumors in both lungs, active intervention should be given to avoid delaying the disease.

Answer. Pulmonary nodules** can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine**.

Question 7 What about small nodules in the lungs**?

In order to hurry up and hurry up on vacation.

According to the size of the pulmonary nodule and the difference in benign and malignant nature, the method has the following differences:

1. Benign nodules, benign nodules are common in infections or benign tumors, if they are nodules caused by infection, such as tuberculosis and fungi, they need to be given anti-tuberculosis or antifungal. If it is a nodule caused by a benign tumor, it is not necessary to observe it regularly.

2. For nodules with high suspicion of malignancy, the following treatment methods are required: for nodules larger than 8mm, active measures should be taken for risk assessment, and three-dimensional reconstruction of the lungs can be examined or TBLB biopsy can be done under bronchoscopy. If there is a high suspicion of malignancy, early surgery** may be considered. For nodules of 6 to 8 mm, active follow-up should be done, and CT of the lungs should be repeated every three to six months.

For nodules smaller than 6 mm, CT follow-up was selected according to the situation.

3. Non-solid nodules are often precancerous or cancerous, and the follow-up time should be extended, and corresponding treatment measures should be selected according to the malignant risk.

Lung nodules are generally caused by lung infections that are not caused in time, and the small nodules in the lungs are mainly anti-inflammatory, but patients should also pay attention to their usual diet, but many patients don't know what they should eat.

1. Pears As we all know, pears have the effect of clearing the lungs and relieving cough, and you should eat more pears when you cough, because eating them can moisten the lungs. In the same way, small nodules in the lungs are caused by lung infections, and eating more pears is good for the lungs. Therefore, patients with small lung nodules should still eat more pears.

Second, lilies. If you have small lung nodules, you should also eat more lilies. You can buy some sun-dried lily petals to boil porridge and drink, which can not only replenish nutrients, but also help the healing of small nodules in the lungs. And lily also has a relatively big advantage that it has no special taste, and picky eaters can eat it.

Fourth, wolfberry. Goji berries contain some nutrients that are beneficial to the lungs, and patients with small lung nodules can eat goji berries or can also use goji berries to soak in water and drink. And eating goji berries regularly is also good for the human body.

In addition to eating these kinds of foods regularly, patients with lung nodules should also exercise their bodies regularly, not to make themselves too tired, and at the same time to stop smoking and drinking, and their usual diet should also be based on light food. The most important part of lung nodules** is to fight infection. Be sure to go to the hospital as soon as possible for an examination, clarify**, and then carry out **** in a targeted manner, and choose the appropriate antibacterial drug according to the symptoms.

Patients with lung nodules should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, not too tired, but also pay attention to regular examinations and actively cooperate**.

There are many causes of lung nodules, such as various inflammations, tuberculosis, tumors, etc., which need to be judged in combination with the specific size and nature. If there is a clear consideration of malignant nodules, some further surgeries will be considered**.

Pulmonary nodules need to go to the local chronic disease prevention and treatment hospital**, where there are more professional doctors to sit for consultation. Due to the particularity of the disease, the whole process is free, and there is also medical subsidy, and there will be no occupational discrimination in the future, I wish you a speed!

How does TCM understand pulmonary nodules? First of all, pulmonary nodules are a kind of lesion found on CT imaging, and if we follow the information of the four diagnoses of traditional Chinese medicine, we find more abnormal manifestations of tongue and pulse syndrome. If the patient has a long-term cough that does not heal, a history of pneumonia, susceptibility, excessive smoking, a spicy and sweet diet, staying up late, a red tongue with little or thick tongue coating, a thin or few pulses, or a history of other visceral diseases.

1. Regular observation is required, for small nodules that are nodules with a diameter of 5mm, regular observation is required, early observation, and regular reexamination is recommended for 3-6 months. After regular reexamination, if there is no obvious change in the nodule, it is recommended to have regular reexamination for 6-12 months after three years of observation;

2. In the process of observation, it was found that the nodule had obvious enlargement, or malignant manifestations. For example, if there are malignant features such as obvious lobulation, a marked increase in solid components, or pleural shrinkage, aggressive surgery is recommended**. At present, the surgery for nodules**, in relatively large central hospitals, is generally minimally invasive**, so the trauma is relatively small, the recovery after surgery is relatively fast, and the long-term prognosis effect is also better.

For example, small nodules cause early lung cancer, the long-term five-year survival rate, the overall survival rate is relatively high, probably more than 80%, especially like carcinoma in situ and atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, these five-year survival rates are relatively higher, about more than 95%, or even 100%.

Question 7 What about small nodules in the lungs**?

Hello, for solitary pulmonary nodules, it is mainly based on its benign and malignant and **decide** plan. Different treatment methods should be adopted for different types and **, emphasizing personalization**.

In general, active surgical intervention should be performed for malignant pulmonary nodules; Benign pulmonary nodules with clear ** need to be targeted**, such as anti-tuberculosis** for tuberculosis and antifungal ** for fungal infection**.

For those who cannot be characterized by pulmonary nodules and can be observed by the doctor, the doctor will make a follow-up plan for the patient within a safe time window according to the probability of malignancy.

For infections such as tuberculosis and fungi, the appropriate anti-tuberculosis and antifungal drugs should be selected**.

When small or deep nodules are removed, advanced positioning or thoracotomy may be considered.

In recent years, with the popularization of medical imaging, there are not a few patients who come to the hospital for medical treatment due to the physical examination of "lung nodules", blind worry is not available, Zhu Shijie of Wangjing has his own views on this piece, If you have time, you can ask, he is also in Tianjian consultation, lung nodules refer to the lung imaging is less than 3cm in diameter, located in the lung parenchyma round or round-like opaque density of the shadow of increased density, called nodules, more than 3cm of round or round, A well-defined shadow is called a lump.

In time**, please clean the lungs and cure them well.

Hello, there are many clinically caused small nodules in the lungs, benign lesions include inflammation, tuberculosis, lung trauma, etc., and malignant lesions may be lung cancer or metastatic cancer in the lungs. If the nodule is less than 25px and the edge is smooth, it is mostly benign, if there is calcification, the benign may be larger, and it can be followed up for observation, and CT can be taken every 3-6 months; Surgery is recommended if the nodule is large with uneven margins or burrs**. At present, the most effective method for lung nodules in China is single-port thoracoscopic minimally invasive surgery, but the operation is not popular in China, and there are relatively few hospitals that can carry out this operation, the list is as follows:

The list is: Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital (single hole), Nantong Sixth People's Hospital (single hole), Shanghai Grand Cardiothoracic Hospital (three holes).

Small lung nodules are common lung diseases that occur in patients who smoke for a long time. Recommendation: The patient needs to go to the respiratory department of the local hospital to remove the **symptomatic**.

The nature of the nodule needs to be determined first, and it is not required in patients who do not present with clinical symptoms. If the disease is severe, drugs such as prednisone and methotrexate should be used under the guidance of a doctor**.

If the pulmonary nodule is an old lesion or an induration lesion caused by a previous disease, it is usually not necessary, and the old lesion will not cause very serious or obvious harm to the body. If the lung nodule is infected, it may be harmful to the body, and in severe cases, it can lead to septic shock. If the lung nodule is caused by broncholung cancer, in the absence of timely treatment, bronchopulmonary cancer will further infiltrate into the surrounding lung tissues, especially the metastasis of hilar lymph nodes, pericardium, pleura, and even distant organs, which will cause great harm to the human body, and even endanger the patient's life and shorten the patient's survival time.

Pulmonary nodules are a substantial space-occupying effect in the lungs, that is, there are nodules in the lungs, and it is generally believed that the unit of pulmonary nodules is less than 3 cm; If it is less than 1 cm, it is called a small nodule, and if it is one to two centimeters, it is called a small nodule; Two to three centimeters in length, called nodules. Generally, nodules larger than 1 cm should be paid great attention to, and the nature of the nodule must be clarified, otherwise it is easy to regard the nodule as benign or malignant, so as to carry out some excessive ** or some missed diagnosis. Therefore, if a nodule appears in the lungs, if it is larger than one centimeter, especially a solid nodule, pathological testing must be carried out to find out the nature of the nodule.

If the lung nodule is tuberculosis infectious, tuberculosis drugs should be used**; In the case of nontuberculous mycobacteria, nontuberculous mycobacteria-susceptible drugs**; If it is non-infectious inflammation, oral glucocorticoids**, etc. Pulmonary nodules** depend on the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules. Nodules are only an imaging diagnosis, not a pathological diagnosis.

Only when a pathological diagnosis is obtained, can the doctor develop the relevant ** plan. Nodules are infectious, and the doctor will conduct the relevant etiology and give the patient a test after identification**. If the nodule is tuberculosis, the patient may be given a prescription tuberculosis medication; Nodules are nontuberculous mycobacteria, and drugs that are sensitive to non-tuberculous bacilli and nontuberculous mycobacteria**; Nodules are non-infectious inflammations, such as vasculitis, and a biopsy will be done after the diagnosis of vasculitis is confirmed, and then the patient will be given relevant drugs, such as oral glucocorticoids**; The nodule is considered to be neoplastic, and it is recommended to consult directly with the thoracic surgeon for thoracoscopic surgery and minimally invasive surgery to directly remove the nodule.

According to the results of the examination, choose the corresponding method, not blindly, patients can do some physical exercise in their daily life, through physical exercise to enhance their own physique, enhance their own resistance to disease and immunity, but patients should pay attention to not let their body be injured again in sports, and do not let themselves be too tired after exercise, or should pay more attention to rest, to regulate their emotions to maintain a happy mood.
