Do you know these 15 small signs of cancer?

Lung cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the fastest growing incidence and mortality rate, and it poses the greatest threat to human health and life. The prognosis of lung cancer is better when it is discovered and treated early, but worse in the late stage. Therefore, early detection and early treatment are important. So what are the small signals of lung cancer?

When lung cancer appears in the early stage, you will often have a long cough, especially a dry cough without sputum. The cough will become more and more severe as the disease worsens. Especially for smokers, it will be more serious. Please seek medical attention in time.

Chest pain. Many lung cancer patients will also feel obvious chest pain in the early stages, which will be more severe when coughing.

White metabolic waste is one of the typical symptoms of lung cancer. It is because lung cancer lesions cause gallbladder obstruction, which in turn leads to white stools.

Sudden weight loss. If you lose weight suddenly without dieting or exercising, this is an abnormal phenomenon and may be a sign of lung cancer.

Oral changes: white spots on the oral mucosa that rapidly expand and are accompanied by a burning and itchy sensation, especially in long-term smokers.

Dyspnea is one of the signs of lung cancer. It is more common in the late stage of lung cancer. It is because the mediastinal lymph nodes are widely metastatic, compressing the trachea, carina or main bronchi, leading to shortness of breath and even suffocation.

Lung cancer can cause pain in the joints of the limbs, symptoms of migratory arthritis, burning pain, movement disorders, edema, and bone hyperplasia.

Lung cancer cells secrete some abnormal substances during their growth, such as hormones, antigens, enzymes or metabolites, which can cause symptoms of male breast enlargement, which is clinically called tumor-associated syndrome.

The pain in the body will increase with age. However, if you have unexplained pain in a certain part of the body and it lasts for more than a week, you should find out the cause as soon as possible, because unexplained pain may be a sign of cancer.
