If there is always phlegm sticking in the throat with pulmonary nodules, further lung X-ray, pulmonary function and other tests are needed to clarify the cause of the disease, and then treatments such as phlegm, anti-tuberculosis, anti-fungal, etc. are carried out.
If there is phlegm sticking to the throat all the time, chronic lung diseases such as COPD or chronic pharyngitis can not be ruled out, and timely medical treatment is needed, with lung X-ray, pulmonary function and other relevant examinations. Symptomatic phlegm removing treatments such as aminoglutethimide can be taken, and anti-infective treatments can be actively used if there are clear indications of bacterial infections.
Lung nodules need to be examined by CT and bronchoscopy to further clarify the nature of the nodules, whether they are benign or malignant. Doctors will give specific treatment plans according to different situations, such as continued observation, or surgical resection, anti-tuberculosis or anti-fungal treatment, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to consult a doctor in a timely manner, and follow the doctor’s instructions to deal with it.
