Most of the lung nodules need to rest for 2~4 weeks after surgery, the corresponding time is mainly affected by the surgical method, postoperative condition and the patient’s recovery status, it is not a completely fixed time. Lung nodule surgery through minimally invasive treatment recovery is relatively fast, most of them can carry out daily activities in about 2 weeks, open heart surgery recovery time will be extended; good surgical results, fewer intraoperative complications, the recovery time will be shortened; the patient’s physical condition is good, the recovery is faster, the overall recovery time will be shortened as well. Most of them can basically have normal activities in about 4 weeks. During the postoperative recovery period, obvious symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc., need to consult a doctor in time for observation, determine the physical condition through clinical examination, and carry out standardized treatment under the guidance of the clinician to avoid delaying the condition.
