What symptom does lung cancer have in the body?

Shoulder and back pain. Peripheral lung cancer often erodes the pleura, involving the ribs and chest wall tissue, resulting in shoulder and back pain. These patients rarely have respiratory symptoms. hoarseness. The laryngeal nerve compressed by lung cancer metastasis can paralyze the vocal cord and cause hoarseness. Because the metastatic foci of lung cancer can appear in the early stage, and the metastatic foci sometimes grow faster than the primary foci, the clinical manifestations of the metastatic foci can appear before the primary foci.

Neurological symptoms. Brain metastases from lung cancer may have nervous system symptoms such as headache, vomiting, sudden coma, aphasia, hemiplegia, etc. because the lung symptoms are not obvious, it is often misdiagnosed as thrombosis and brain tumor.

Male breast hypertrophy. About 10% - 20% of male lung cancer patients have mammary gland enlargement, most of which are bilateral enlargement, and this symptom occurs about one year earlier than cough, blood in sputum, chest pain, shortness of breath and other lung symptoms. This is because some lung cancer cells can secrete chorionic gonadotropin, which can cause hyperplasia of breast tissue and make breast hypertrophy.

matters needing attention

Common early lung cancer symptoms have the above aspects, usually pay attention to their physical condition, regular to the hospital for physical examination, pay attention to physical health. Patients with lung cancer in the early stage of treatment usually use surgery to remove the focus, and then combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy to kill the residual tumor cells. However, at present, it can be cured by non-surgical treatment of early lung cancer with CyberKnife. CyberKnife treatment is accurate, painless and noninvasive, with short treatment time and small side effects. It can kill tumor cells comprehensively through radiation.
