Polyps in the lungs, often referred to as lung nodules, are abnormal growths of tissue that can be benign or malignant. They can arise from various causes, including infections, inflammation, or tumors. While many lung nodules are harmless and may resolve on their own, some may indicate underlying conditions, including lung cancer. A thorough evaluation, often involving imaging and possibly biopsy, is essential to determine their nature and the appropriate course of action.
