Hello, multiple tiny nodules in both lungs may result from a history of dust exposure, where dust particles adhere to the lung tissue. Some pulmonary infections can also manifest as multiple tiny nodules in both lungs; these are typically accompanied by symptoms such as fever, cough, and sputum production. With prompt anti-inflammatory and anti-infective treatment, the nodules may resolve and improve. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a pleasant and healthy life!
