Can asthma cause a scar in your lungs? My doctor said he found a pencilpoint size nodule on cat scan of my lung? Of course I'm going to get it checked out with a specialist but I'm freaking out and hoping that it's just a scar from either asthma that I've had since I was 12 (I'm 23 now), or the bronchitis and pneumonia that I've had a few times. Help!

ya it could be just some scar tissue. But it's best to get checked out so you know for sure. Have you been coughing, short of breath lately, more tired, those are the usual signs of lung cancer. But right now if I were you, I'd set up an appt as soon as possible, but wouldn't worry.
