Is the symptom of pulmonary sarcoidosis a cough?

Sarcoidosis has no specific clinical manifestations and can be asymptomatic, coughing, fibrosis and progressive dyspnea.

Pulmonary nodules usually refer to lesions that are no larger than 3 cm. If the lesion is outside the tracheal lumen and the large trachea does not cause compression, it will not cause cough, whereas if the nodule is large and grows in the cavity or compresses the airway cavity even if it does not grow in the lumen, it can cause cough. Zhang Wenpeng, director of traditional Chinese medicine at Beijing Sihui West District Hospital, said that if the diameter of the lung nodule found is small, then even if it grows in the cavity, the symptoms of cough caused by it are relatively mild, which is also an important reason why pulmonary nodules are not easy to detect in the early stage.

Pulmonary nodules** may cause damage to the respiratory system if not timely, which is very harmful to physical health; In particular, pulmonary nodules may also be malignant lesions, and if not timely, cancer cells will multiply and metastasize in the body, which will seriously shorten the survival period. Therefore, after discovering the early symptoms of pulmonary nodules, it is particularly important to be timely **, so, what are the early symptoms of pulmonary nodules?

1. Cough and phlegm.

In general, when pulmonary nodules are still in the early stages of the disease, the symptoms are not particularly obvious because the lung damage is mild. There may be occasional cough and sputum production, with very little sputum; As the condition worsens, there will be some blood streaks in the sputum.

2. Fever and chills.

When pulmonary nodules are co-infected, fever may occur. Because of the increase in body temperature, the body often feels cold, and it is accompanied by muscle aches, fatigue and weakness.

3. Weakness.

If benign pulmonary nodules are co-infected, fever symptoms often show signs of general weakness; Malignant lung nodules can also cause cancerous fever, which can also make patients feel weak and listless.

4. Weight loss.

When pulmonary nodules appear, they may affect the digestive system, resulting in loss of appetite, nutritional intake, and weight loss. Especially when the pulmonary nodule is a malignant lesion, the internal friction is more serious, and the symptoms of weight loss will be more obvious.

5. Chest tightness and shortness of breath.

When there is a wide range of lesions in the lungs, it may be accompanied by symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath, and it is particularly difficult to breathe. In severe cases, symptoms such as dyspnea may occur.

6. Chest pain.

There are many pulmonary nodules, and if they are caused by cryptococcal infection, malignant tumors and other diseases, they are often accompanied by chest pain symptoms. If the pulmonary nodule is caused by cryptococcal infection, only simple chest pain will occur; If the lung nodule is caused by a malignant tumor, there will be cough, sputum production, and blood in the sputum when the symptoms of chest pain appear.

There are many symptoms of pulmonary sarcoidal disease, such as cough, sputum production, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, etc.

Pulmonary nodules belong to a group of diseases, which are commonly used in imaging, not a single disease, and most patients have no symptoms. There are many causes of nodules, such as inflammation, tuberculosis, tumors, pulmonary sarcoidosis, rheumatism and immunity. There are no obvious specific symptoms of pulmonary nodules in clinical practice, and patients often have symptoms such as cough, chest pain, and low-grade fever, which are mostly related to the patient's own diseases.

In summary, pulmonary nodules can be caused by a variety of causes without specific symptoms, and patients are advised to undergo further testing to confirm the nature of the nodules.

Patients with pulmonary nodules usually have symptoms of cough and sputum production, but usually only a small amount of sputum is coughed, and occasionally a small amount of hemoptysis is present. Secondly, patients may experience symptoms such as lack of energy, increased body temperature, increased sweating, lack of desire to eat, and weight loss. It will also affect the patient's breathing, such as chest tightness and discomfort, shortness of breath, poor breathing and other symptoms, and even cyanosis.

If there are symptoms of infection, it may also induce emphysema, bronchiectasis and other diseases, and even affect other organs.

Pulmonary nodules are an unspecified multi-system and multi-organ granulomatous disease, often invading the lungs, bilateral hilar lymph nodes, eyes, ** and other organs, pulmonary nodules generally have no obvious symptoms, no cough, chest pain. Occasionally, patients may experience lung discomfort. It is usually caused by frequent smoking, pneumonia or tuberculosis, and frequent exposure to harmful substances.

Although pulmonary nodules are not cancerous, they can also malignantly transform into cancer, and it is advisable to do so as soon as possible**.

There are three main types of pulmonary nodules: inflammatory, benign and malignant. If it is an inflammatory nodule and is caused by an infection, it may cause cough in some patients; If the nodule is benign or malignant, cough will not appear in the early stage, but it will appear as the nodule gradually increases.

Pulmonary nodules should be followed up under the guidance of a physician after they are found, and intervention is required if the nodules become larger in the follow-up patients.

No, I have a colleague who has several nodules in his lungs and no cough in his lungs during a recent physical examination, and I promise to have a physical examination once a year, and there is no problem if the nodules do not get bigger, so the doctor generally says so.

Hello, according to your description, lung nodules may be caused by a variety of reasons, such as infection, tuberculosis, hyperplasia and even tumors, generally less than 6mm of solitary nodules are mostly benign, it is recommended that regular review CT can be carried out at intervals of three months to six months, if there is no change, it can be extended to a year to recheck, if there is no change in the continuous review for three years, it is not necessary to recheck again, if there is an enlargement, further examination should be carried out to strengthen CT, tumor markers, needle biopsy or PET-CT to clarify its nature, if necessary, surgery**.

Lung nodules may be caused by a variety of reasons, such as infection, tuberculosis, hyperplasia and even tumors, generally less than 6mm of solitary nodules are mostly benign, it is recommended that CT can be rechecked regularly at intervals of three months to six months, if there is no change, it can be extended to a year to recheck, if there is no change in the continuous reexamination, there is no need to re-examine again, if there is an enlargement, it should be further examined and strengthened CT

Strictly speaking, pulmonary nodules have no obvious symptoms. Pulmonary nodules are often screened by chest CT. For some people who have no symptoms, when they go for CT physical examination, they can even find that they have already developed lung cancer, and these patients with early lung cancer** have achieved good results.

Therefore, there are no symptoms in the normal lung nodules, and our normal lungs, that is, the internal organs, are not painful. However, symptoms such as cough may occur. When lung cancer progresses to a severe level, there may be symptoms such as cough, hemoptysis, and chest pain, which are often at an advanced stage of lung cancer.

Therefore, it is recommended that people over the age of 40 should have a chest CT scan every year. Because the incidence of lung cancer in China is now the first. The mortality rate of lung cancer is more than that of liver cancer, esophageal cancer and colon cancer, which are ranked in the bottom three, four or five combined.

What is a ground-glass nodule in the lungs.

Ground-glass nodules in the lungs refer to some nodules in the lungs that are relatively low-density, as if they are ground glass or clouds. This indicates that the nodule has relatively few substantial components. It's like a ball of cotton, a glass ball and an iron ball of the same size, although the volume is the same, but the density is obviously different, and the weight is also different.

A ground-glass nodule is equivalent to a lump of cotton and is a very low-density lesion. Similar to the ground glass in life, it feels like there is a layer of fog. Ground glass nodules are generally divided into less than five millimeters and more than five millimeters, and some are divided into less than eight millimeters and more than eight millimeters.

Below eight millimeters is relatively safe, while those above eight millimeters are risky. For ground-glass nodules found for the first time, it is recommended to reduce inflammation before considering surgery. Pulmonary nodules are a general term for lesions in the lungs that are less than three centimeters, so it is not necessary to say that ground-glass nodules are lung cancers.

In the case of nodules in the lungs, don't be too nervous, worry, first of all, clarify the size of the nodules, if not more than one centimeter, it is recommended to follow up and observe, generally re-examined once every six months If there is no obvious change, there should be no big problem, if there are signs of enlargement, if necessary, combined with other laboratory tests and clinical examinations to decide the ** plan.

Pulmonary nodules are not a disease, they are more like a morphological manifestation, so what is the principle of CT? In layman's terms, it is to illuminate your lungs with a beam of light, so let's see if there are some opaque things in it, and this lung nodule is some impurities that are not very transparent. So what exactly is this impurity?

It may be some inflammation of your lungs, it may be tuberculosis, it may be some fungal infection, or some tumors, etc., we need to combine some of its size, density, morphological characteristics, in order to be able to diagnose what it is, whether it is benign or malignant. Then a lung nodule has been found, what should we do next? Generally speaking, we have three options, and ultimately it depends on your specific situation.

Clause. 1. Follow-up.

Clause. 2. Further examination.

Clause. 3. Direct surgical excision.

For the vast majority of pulmonary nodules, they are benign, we can do a good follow-up, there are a few some inflammation, then we are carrying out anti-infection, those we highly suspect is malignant, we directly do surgery to cut it off, we have an abnormality in the physical examination, we should listen to the doctor's advice, don't panic, don't use drugs without authorization, some patients are very persistent, that is, we told him that it is a benign pulmonary nodule, and there are no symptoms, he is very diaphragmatic in his heart, It is not correct to have surgery to cut it out.

Generally, pulmonary nodules refer to punctate or spherical high-density lesions in the lungs that are less than three centimeters in diameter. It is usually discovered by accident during a chest x-ray or chest CT scan. Pulmonary nodules, which can be solitary or multiple.

The common causes of lung nodules can be summarized as follows. First, the most common is infectious nodules, including proliferative lesions caused by pathogenic bacteria such as tuberculosis, bacteria, and molds. Second, benign lung tumors, such as sclerosing hemangiomas and hamartomas.

Thirdly, some lesions heal and leave scars. Fourth, malignant lung tumors, including primary lung cancer, or metastatic lung tumors.

Questions. So how do I go about it?

General professional medical staff, they will give the correct ** plan, and give corresponding opinions, are very good for patients, medical staff are very trustworthy.

Questions. In the follow-up, I had a pleural effusion of 10mm bilateral posterior blood test to check for chlamydia infection, and it has been ** for about a year or still not better, and there is a little intermittent pain in the right chest for about 3 years.

This kind of professional question still has to ask professional medical staff, a little suggestion is that if you only have in one hospital, it has not had much effect, you can try to change to a better hospital by yourself.

Pulmonary nodules refer to small round or oval nodular masses in the lungs, and pulmonary nodules can be roughly divided into two categories: benign and malignant according to the type of disease. The main causes of pulmonary nodules are lung infection, non-infectious inflammation, benign tumors, malignant tumors, and post-healing scar tissue. According to the different diameters of pulmonary nodule masses, they can be roughly divided into:

Micronodules are lumps with a nodule diameter of less than 5 mm; A small nodule is a lump with a nodule diameter of 5-10 mm. For the above two types of pulmonary sarcoidosis, if there are no other uncomfortable symptoms or risk factors, regular follow-up observation can be taken first. Pulmonary nodules refer to masses with a diameter of 10-30mm, and for this type of nodules, corresponding measures need to be taken according to the specific type of disease of the patient.

Pulmonary nodules can be diagnosed by chest X-ray, chest CT scan, bronchoscopy, etc.

Pulmonary sarcoidosis is a rare disease. Consider a granulation tissue disease, which can be without any symptoms. If there is a nodule in the lungs.

When there is a noticeable increase, chest tightness may occur.

Shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, and even respiratory failure. At this time, the patient should also be given oxygen.

Mechanical ventilation and assisted ventilation are given when necessary to improve the patient's hypoxia. It is easy to have a lung infection, and fever occurs when the infection is obvious.

Cough and yellow sputum. According to the results of sputum culture drug sensitivity, antibiotics should be used reasonably**. Usually pay attention to avoid cold and keep warm. Enhance nutrition, eat more protein-rich foods to improve the body's resistance.
