Recently, I have noticed that some of my friends are at a loss after being diagnosed with lung nodules, and their hearts are full of worry and anxiety. As a pulmonologist with extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary nodules, I know the confusion and confusion these friends face.

First of all, I want to emphasize that you should not blindly believe in the so-called earthwork remedies. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) does pay attention to syndrome differentiation and treatment, and the medication needs to be combined with the specific situation of the patient and his own physique. Everyone's constitution is unique, so there is no one-size-fits-all prescription.

Secondly, I would like to remind everyone to be cautious about the practice of some friends who choose to go online to find answers when they have symptoms of lung disease. The quality of information on the web varies, and some inaccurate answers may exacerbate anxiety. When encountering problems, it is recommended that you seek help and consultation from a medical professional.

Moreover, the problem of excessive ** cannot be ignored. Many pulmonary nodules are benign, especially smaller ones. Patients do not need to rush to acceptance**, regular follow-up reviews are sufficient. Blind surgery is not only bad for your health, but can also lead to the appearance of new nodules in other areas, such as the thyroid gland, breast, etc. Therefore, the choice of surgery should be cautious, and it is necessary to choose the appropriate plan after the evaluation of a professional doctor.

In addition, many people overperform various examinations such as CT, contrast-enhanced CT, PET-CT, etc., after the detection of lung nodules. This kind of blind examination is not only harmful to the body, but also increases the financial burden. We need to make it clear that these tests have a certain amount of radiation and are expensive. Therefore, the necessary examinations should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.

All in all, pulmonary nodules are not an invincible disease. We need to treat it with a rational attitude and overcome it with a scientifically rational solution. If you have any questions or confusion about pulmonary nodules, please feel free to ask me. I will do my best to provide you with professional answers and assistance.
