Usually there are no symptoms but if present, symptoms would be related to the condition that caused the nodule to develop. If the nodule is due to lung cancer, the patient is often without symptoms or may have developed a new cough, or coughed up blood. Most of the time, a patient is unaware of the presence of a lung nodule until a chest X-ray or computed tomography scan (CT scan) of the lungs is performed and the nodule is picked up incidentally.
