I have told you before that it is best to fix a hospital or a doctor for the re-examination of lung nodules, because different machine measurements will have an error of about 1-2mm.

For example, the patient mentioned in the video (click to play) was not in the same hospital for two examinations, the first time was in 2022, a 5mm solid nodule was found, and a recent re-examination found that there was a small solid nodule of about 3mm in the left upper lobe, a 4mm ground-glass nodule in the lower lobe of the left lung, and a high-density nodule in the upper lobe of the right lung.

If the patient's nodule is not original, there are two possibilities for new appearance, one is that the original machine does CT to set the thickness of the layer, the layer and interval are a little thick, and some nodules will be missed, here is also a reminder that it is best to do thin-slice CT for the reexamination of pulmonary nodules;

However, the 4mm nodule is not too big, and if it is really new, now is a good time for treatment, and the effect will be relatively good.

In addition, patients also have breast nodules, thyroid nodules, which are typical nodule constitution, generally speaking, most of these patients are liver stagnation and spleen deficiency and phlegm coagulation, which are important factors causing long nodules.

Moreover, the risk of most pulmonary nodules is not high, and there is time for traditional Chinese medicine intervention to give yourself a chance not to operate, but also to regulate the physique, so that the nodules are no longer suitable for growth.
