summary

The doctor said it was lung cancer, and I have already found an expert doctor for treatment. Now the situation is better. Now I will tell you about the history, symptoms and signs of lung cancer.

History, symptoms and signs of lung cancer

Symptom 1: other early symptoms of lung pain, such as cough, chest pain, hemoptysis, are lack of characteristics, while hoarseness has certain specificity. According to statistics, about 20% to 30% of lung cancer patients can have hoarseness in different stages of the disease, including early stage.

Symptoms two: Hemoptysis often occurs in the early and middle stages of the disease, with little blood volume, bright red or mixed with foam. The reason for this phenomenon is the abundance of blood vessels on the tumor surface. Coughing damages the surface layer, resulting in vascular rupture.

Symptom 3: when the growth in the bronchus develops to half or total obstruction of the lumen, obstructive pneumonia can occur. Fever is generally around 38 ℃, and it is easy to reduce fever after anti-inflammatory treatment. But if the obstruction is not removed, the pneumonia will reappear soon, forming recurrent pneumonia.

matters needing attention

Warm tips: facial and neck edema is also a common symptom of advanced lung cancer. If the tumor invades the right side of mediastinum and compresses the superior vena cava, it will make the jugular vein distended at first due to poor reflux, and finally lead to facial and neck edema, which needs timely diagnosis and treatment.
