Before undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery, patients with small lung nodules often need a procedure called "CT-guided hook wire localization." This involves using a CT scanner to help doctors place a tiny wire in the lung to mark the exact location of the nodule for the surgeon. While very helpful for the surgery, this wire placement can be highly painful for patients. The main purpose of this clinical trial is to find out if giving patients a pain-relieving medication called parecoxib sodium before the procedure can effectively reduce their pain. Parecoxib sodium is a standard, non-opioid painkiller given through an IV. Additionally, researchers want to discover the best time to give this medication. Because operating room schedules can change, patients will receive the IV medication at different times before their localization procedure (ranging from less than an hour to more
