CANCER   

LUNG-CANCER 

Lung cancer may have no symptoms when the cancer is diagnosed. These cancers usually are identified incidentally when a chest X-Ray is performed for another reason. The majority of people, however, develop symptoms. The symptoms are due to direct effects of the primary tumor, to effects of metastatic tumors in other parts of the body, or to disturbances of hormones, blood, or other systems caused by the cancer.

Symptoms of primary lung cancers include cough, coughing up blood, chest pain, and shortness of breath.

• A new cough in a smoker or a former smoker should raise concern for lung cancer.



• A cough that does not go away or gets worse over time should be evaluated by a health-care provider.



• Coughing up blood (hemoptysis) occurs in a significant number of people who have lung cancer. Any amount of coughed-up blood is cause for concern.



• Chest pain is a symptom in about one-fourth of people with lung cancer. The pain is dull, aching, and persistent.



• Shortness of breath usually results from a blockage to the flow of air in part of the lung, collection of fluid around the lung , or the spread of tumor throughout the lungs
