Lungs are important body organs for us. If there is a lump on the lung, the doctor may recommend a needle biopsy to make a definite diagnosis. Some patients don't know what a needle biopsy is and whether the procedure will be painful or not.

Needle biopsy is a very commonly used method to obtain pathological tissue in clinic. It takes a tissue specimen from a lesion by inserting a biopsy needle into the lesion and then cutting it. For needle biopsies, only local anesthesia is given to the skin puncture site, and the patient generally does not feel uncomfortable. Because of the use of a very thin needle, the puncture after local anesthesia, the patient almost painless, a few days after the puncture hole natural healing. Therefore, it can be said that there is no pain or adverse effects of needle biopsy.

Needle biopsy has the advantages of less trauma, reliable sampling and simple operation, so it has become a main method of pathological biopsy. Typically, needle biopsies are performed under CT or ultrasound guidance. There are certain requirements for the location of lung lesions in needle biopsy. Needle biopsies should be performed only for lesions that are peripheral to the lung field and not penetrated by large blood vessels. Needle biopsy has some complications, including pneumothorax, bleeding and pain, which will not have serious consequences after symptomatic treatment. Life-threatening complications do occur, but the probability is low.

When our lungs are healthy, we can breathe easily. In daily life, if you have a lung problem, then it is necessary to timely check treatment. In daily life, eat more lung-clearing food, which can help us to protect lung health and make the body strong.
