How to treat tiny nodules in the middle lobe of the right lung

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%.

Small pulmonary nodules are unexplained multisystem noncaseating granulomas that resolve spontaneously or progress to fibrosis. About half of the cases are found during chest examination, and mild clinical symptoms are one of the characteristics of the disease, if there are symptoms, it is often cough, coughing up a small amount of mucous sputum, weight loss, sometimes fatigue, fever, night sweats, loss of appetite, etc. There are many causes of small lung nodules, such as tuberculosis, chronic inflammation, metastases, etc.

Guidance: It is recommended that you have a CT examination of the lungs at intervals to observe the development of the lesion, your situation is considered to be caused by chronic inflammation, so you don't have to worry too much, and you don't need to use drugs for the time being, it is recommended that you exercise more, enhance your physique, develop good living habits, avoid smoking and drinking, pay attention to keeping warm, I hope I can help you.

1. The small nodules of the upper lobe of the right lung and the small nodules of the lower lobe of the left lung are mainly considered to be the possibility of inflammation, tuberculosis and tumor, and further examination is recommended.

2. Re-examination after giving antibiotics ** to control inflammation, and bronchoscopy if necessary, if the cough is severe, cough and phlegm can be given**.

3. Pay attention to protection, pay attention to rest, avoid staying up late, drink more water, avoid going to crowded places to prevent cross-infection, indoor ventilation, ensure adequate caloric intake, exercise appropriately, and enhance the body's immunity.

Traditional Chinese medicine has a Tibetan internal organ positioning that is completely based on functional meteorological positioning, that is"Left liver and right lung"This is completely inconsistent with the anatomical conclusion, and the liver here does not refer to the entity of the liver, but to the meaning of liver qi. The main generation of liver qi should be the image of the East, the East was the left in ancient times, and the ancient Chinese were"Left, east, right, west"Come and see the world. The main Chen of lung qi should be the image of the West, so it is said"Right lung", the liver and lungs, one rise and one fall, can coordinate the qi of the whole body, and the qi is smooth, and the person will not be sick, so the treatment of the disease can be said to be the treatment of the liver and lungs, and the disease is difficult to treat, so it is said"The liver and lungs are difficult to regulate"。

To put it simply, there is a small pimple in the upper part of the right lung. However, the exact nature of this small pimple is uncertain, and it may be an enlarged lymph node, an old calcified lesion, or a cancerous ......This requires a pathological biopsy to be confirmed.

There are many causes of lung opacities (nodules in the lungs), the most common are inflammatory infections, tuberculosis, lung cancer, and should be distinguished from hamartomas, connective tissue diseases, hemangiomas, teratomas, etc.

Pulmonary nodules are small, focal, round-like, radiographically densely populated and may be single or multiple without atelectasis, hilar enlargement, and pleural effusion. Solitary pulmonary nodules are atypical and are often single, well-defined, dense, 3 cm in diameter, surrounded by air-containing lung tissue.

There are two types of small nodules on the lungs:

First, if you have had a recent lung infection, and the small nodules are like scars, you can continue to observe this situation.

Second, this small nodule, like a mole on the body, is equivalent to a body surface marker, and this situation does not need to be treated. In both cases, CT only needs to be reviewed regularly to see if there is any change in the nodule, and if there is no obvious change, there is no need to pay attention to it.

In the case of the small nodules you mentioned, in general, there should be a lesion caused by inflammation, and some have been cured, basically the problem is not big, if the nodule suddenly changes and increases, it should be paid attention to.

Dear, the small nodules in the lungs are caused by local foreign bodies in the lobes of the lungs, tuberculosis calcifications, tumors and other factors. 1.Local foreign bodies:

When small particles of dust and food enter the lungs, they may be encapsulated by inflammatory cells locally, resulting in tiny nodules in the lungs. If there are no symptoms, no special treatment is required. 2.

Tuberculosis calcifications: When you have been infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, you can form calcifications locally in the lungs, and you will also show small lung nodules. No special treatment is required at this time.

3.Tumors: If there is a growth of tumor cells in the lungs, if the tumor is detected early, the tumor has not yet grown, and small lung nodules can also be observed.

At this time, the nature of the swelling and tumor can be determined by needle biopsy, and then measures such as observation or thoracoscopic tumor resection can be taken. When we have small lung nodules, we need to complete CT, tuberculin test, tumor markers and other examinations under the guidance of the doctor, and follow the doctor's instructions. I hope you can do it soon**.

With the popularization of CT examination and the enhancement of people's health awareness, many people will have a physical examination once a year, and people who usually do not have symptoms of cough, chest pain, or sputum production are screened for nodules in the lungs on the physical examination report.

What should I do if a pulmonary nodule is detected? The first physical examination, especially for young friends, did not have any symptoms, only the tiny nodules found in the lungs, if they were less than 5mm, they were basically benign.

Therefore, if you find a tiny nodule in your lungs during the physical examination, don't be nervous.

Be sure to set aside a time for observation and don't rush to surgery.

We can divide the period of observation into 3 months, 6 months or 1 year.

Even if the small nodules in the lungs are malignant, the possibility of metastasis after three months of observation is not high, and it is still early. During the observation period, if the tiny nodule grows long, the morphology becomes irregular. It was completely too late for surgery to proceed.

The small nodules of the left lower lobe of the lungs are a very intractable disease, and in many cases this disease poses an unnecessary threat to our patients, and many people will trace the cause of this disease, so I will explore it for you.

Method steps.

Reason 1: The formation of small nodules in the lower lobe of the left lung is a relatively long process, it is recommended that you do a CT to see the overall condition of the lungs, to see if there is any abnormality in the lymph nodes, it is recommended that you can take some antibiotics to observe for a while to see if the small nodule foci have shrunk.

Reason 2: When we go to the hospital for examination, if it is reduced, it can be considered as inflammation, and if there is no shrinkage, we need to continue the examination! It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for respiratory medicine treatment, and the doctor who needs to receive you will ask for a detailed medical history.

Reason 3: We cannot 100% explore the cause of the formation of small nodules in the lower lobe of the left lung, so we should make a clear diagnosis based on your uncomfortable symptoms and physical constitution in combination with your imaging examination and other auxiliary tests.

Precautions. The formation of small nodules in the lower lobe of the left lung is a very long and complex process, and our patients should now think about how to form rather than investigate the cause.
