Hello.good afternoon.

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should not worry much. And no need to think for cancer at all. As calcified lesions are not cancerous. So stop worrying about cancer. Calcified nodule suggest healed, scarred, inactive lesion. It suggests non-infectious nature of nodule. This can be due to1. Old pneumonia2. Old tuberculosis. So nothing should be done for treatment in your case. And no need to worry much for cancer.
