A 19-year-old girl recently contacted me on an online consultation platform , sent me her information, she was very worried about her lung nodules, and asked if I needed surgery? I saw that she had two CT scans this month, one was at the beginning of November, when a solid nodule was found in the lungs, the largest diameter was 5mm, and then another CT scan was taken two days ago, but The CT showed fractured ribs. She said that she had been in a car accident in the past two days. She had nodules on her lungs, and her lungs were not good, so she had another car accident. Now she has a little cough, which makes her very worried.

These nodules in her lungs are more likely to be benign, and a reexamination will be enough after one year. Now she is still hospitalized for car accident trauma, I thought she would not Worried about lung nodules, rest assured.
