Mondo Health Updated on 2024-01-31

The outpatient clinic met a lung nodule netizen from Inner Mongolia, he had an 8mm lung nodule in the upper lobe of the left lung, according to the report brought by the patient, he first detected the lung nodule a year ago, when it was a 5mm, because there were no malignant features, the doctor let the first regular review, but the results of several lung reexaminations before and after were not very ideal, from the report, the most recent one was 8mm, there were lobulations and pleural traction, according to previous experience, the patient's nodule was not very good.

The patient said that he did not want to have surgery, and wanted to try traditional Chinese medicine conditioning first, from the overall condition of the patient, the nodule would not have any effect in a short period of time, so I told the patient, I will give you conditioning for a month, and then go for a follow-up examination, if the nodule develops in a good direction, becomes smaller, or the burr and pleural traction are gone, then I can continue to recuperate, if the nodule does not develop in a good direction after a month, it is necessary to take surgery in time** After the operation, we will carry out an overall conditioning from the inside to the outside, and adjust your physique with long nodules to a balance point, so that nodules will not occur.

Every time I see the patient's report, I can't help but remember a point for the patient's condition, and every time I want to alleviate the pain of the patient, which is also the driving force for me to insist on continuous science popularization.

Follow me, focus on respiratory health. If there is any illness that you don't understand, you can interact with me in the fan base.
