What are the three types of pains in the middle stage of lung cancer?

It is incorrect to say that there are three types of pain in the middle stage of lung cancer. The middle stage of lung cancer can cause chest pain, headache, shoulder pain, back pain, etc.

1. Chest pain: In the middle stage of lung cancer, the cancer lesions are relatively large, which will cause compression and irritation to nearby tissues. If the pleura is involved, it is easy to cause chest pain, which can manifest as dull pain, sometimes severe pain, and the pain is aggravated by coughing.

2. Headache: Mid-stage lung cancer lesions may metastasize. If brain metastasis occurs, it may cause headaches.

3. Shoulder pain: The main reason is that cancer lesions compress the top of the upper lobe of the lung, which can easily cause shoulder pain. Some shoulder pain is caused by bone metastasis.

4. Back pain: Due to the deep infiltration of cancer lesions, it will stimulate the surrounding pleura and bones, causing back pain.

Lung cancer in the middle stage may also cause pain in other parts of the body, such as sore throat, leg pain, etc. If the above symptoms occur, you should go to the hospital in time and cooperate with the doctor for examination and treatment to avoid worsening of the disease.
