Symptoms of advanced lung cancer

summary

Lung cancer is the fastest growing incidence rate and mortality rate of all malignant tumors. It is one of the most malignant tumors that threaten human health and life. In recent years, many countries have reported that the incidence rate and mortality rate of lung cancer are increasing obviously. According to the survey, the incidence rate and mortality rate of male lung cancer are the first in all malignant tumors, while the incidence rate of female is second, and the mortality rate is second. With the development of medical technology, the etiology of lung cancer is still not completely clear.

Symptoms of advanced lung cancer

According to some data, smoking for a long time is the main cause of lung cancer. However, according to expert research, the prevalence of long-term large-scale smokers is 10-20 times that of non-smokers. The younger the age of starting smoking, the higher the risk of lung cancer. In addition, smoking not only directly affects health, but also causes adverse effects on the health of the surrounding population, leading to a significant increase in the prevalence of lung cancer among passive smokers.

The incidence rate of lung cancer in city residents is higher than that in rural areas, which is mainly related to city air pollution and carcinogens in smoke. Therefore, we should advocate non-smoking. The common clinical manifestation of lung cancer is cough and expectoration, and sputum with blood, even hemoptysis, dyspnea, chest tightness, chest pain and other symptoms.

In addition to dyspnea, patients with advanced lung cancer will also have symptoms such as fever, emaciation, lack of strength and anemia. This is mainly due to the infection in advanced lung cancer, the decrease of food caused by pain, and the increase of consumption caused by tumor growth and toxin.

matters needing attention

For patients with advanced cancer, we should accompany them more, chat with them more, and ease their mood. Eat some soft and easy to digest food, add more nutrition, exercise properly and have more rest. For healthy people, we should protect ourselves more and prevent adverse factors from entering the human body.
