What symptoms of lung cancer would be important to have checked out by a physician?

Rating: +0

Positive Negative

The most frequent signs of lung cancer are:

a cough that does not go away

blood streaks in your sputum

chest wall pain

shortness of breath

hoarseness

These symptoms can also occur with other illnesses besides lung cancer. They should be evaluated right away to determine the cause. Most lung cancers are not discovered until symptoms arise. Unfortunately, by the time symptoms develop the cancer can be advanced.

If you have any of these symptoms you should have them checked by your primary care physician as soon as you can.
