Why is lung cancer always discovered in the late stage? These symptoms of lung cancer are atypical

Due to the accelerated pace of people's lives and the increasingly serious social and environmental pollution, the incidence of some malignant tumors is getting higher and higher, and once discovered, they are already in the middle and late stages and there is no need for treatment, which is very frightening, especially for the most common lung cancer.

We often hear that someone died of advanced lung cancer at a young age, which is very regrettable. Why is it in the advanced stage? What happened to the early stage? Was it not discovered? Yes, in the early stage, it is often not discovered, because the area of ​​the lungs overlaps with the heart, diaphragm and other tissues, and some early lung cancers are difficult to be discovered in time.

Lung cancer has no symptoms in the early stages, so it is difficult to detect in time. The location of lung cancer also affects whether it can be detected in time. If it grows around the lungs, it will cause chest pain and chest tightness in the early stages; if it grows on the bronchus, it will cause blood in the sputum, chest tightness, and cough in the early stages. However, if it grows in the substantial part of the lungs, there will be no symptoms of discomfort in the early stages. Symptoms will only appear when the tumor metastasizes or local compression occurs. Therefore, when it attracts people's attention and is discovered, it is often either in the middle or late stages.

So, what are the atypical symptoms of lung cancer? In fact, lung cancer will have symptoms of no fever, no sputum, and dry cough in the early stage. Sometimes there will be a situation of coughing up blood, which is the common blood in sputum. Sometimes there will be severe chest pain, upper limbs not only pain, but also numbness. When the lung tumor metastasizes, sometimes there will be headaches and dizziness. All of the above are different from the typical symptoms of lung cancer. So in life, as long as we carefully observe and feel the changes in the body, we can detect lung cancer in time at an early stage.

Since the occurrence of lung cancer is related to the environment we live in, and is related to factors such as long-term smoking and kitchen fume pollution, in daily life we ​​must strengthen physical exercise, improve our immunity and resistance, and pay attention to improving our quality of life, not smoking, staying away from secondhand smoke, staying away from environmental pollution, and providing ourselves and our families with a good living environment to avoid the occurrence of lung cancer.
