Lung nodules generally refer to lung nodules. Whether lung nodules can cause pleural adhesions should be analyzed in combination with the actual situation.

Can pulmonary nodules cause pleural adhesions?

If the patient's lung nodules are mild, the clinical symptoms are not obvious, and active treatment is taken after the disease, the lung nodules will gradually dissipate and will not spread to the pleural site. Generally, pleural adhesions will not be caused. If the patient's condition is serious, cough, shortness of breath, dyspnea and other discomfort symptoms, and after the disease is not treated in time, leading to serious lung infection, further invasion of pleura, pleural congestion, swelling, erosion, and exudation of more inflammatory secretions, easy to cause pleural adhesion.
