Lung nodules cut off as white hard lumps are usually mild, but the possibility of the presence of cancer cells cannot be ruled out.
If the nodules are white after surgery, they are usually inflammatory, old tuberculosis foci, etc. At the same time, there is no blood supply inside the nodules, which makes them white in color. At this time, the condition is relatively mild, and some patients may not have obvious symptoms, so it is enough to carry out symptomatic rehabilitation according to the doctor’s instruction after surgery.
The presence of cancer cells cannot be ruled out, and the lung nodule should be examined pathologically, and if no cancer cells are found, the nodule can be diagnosed as benign. If no cancer cells are found, the nodule can be diagnosed as benign. If cancer cells are found, the nodule can be diagnosed as a malignant tumor, and it is still necessary to carry out examinations such as lung thin-layer CT and PET-CT to clarify whether metastasis has occurred.
Therefore, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions to carry out relevant examinations and treatments for the white hard lumps cut off from lung nodules, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
