Will lung nodules shrink and disappear?

If the patient has lung nodules caused by bacterial inflammation in lung tissue, active anti-infection treatment can promote the inflammatory reaction to subside, and nodules can become smaller or even disappear. However, if the patient has lung nodules caused by asbestos inhalation or lung cancer, the nodules usually do not shrink or disappear on their own.

Patients need to see a doctor for blood routine, tumor markers, pathological tissue biopsy and other tests to confirm the type of disease according to the results.
