Can Non-cancerous Pulmonary Nodules Lead To Frequent Bouts Of Cold And Cough?

Hello, my cardiologist has discovered I have pulmonary nodules this year. He says they are non cancerous. one remarkable thing is that I have had 4 different bouts of coughing colds this year which is really unusual for me. Typically, I have a cold about once every 3-4 years. Do you think the nodules and the colds could be related? Thanks Paul
