Dr. Cas: 9 Early Warning Signs of Lung Cancer

Описание: Dr. Cas: 9 Early Warning Signs of Lung Cancer

In this video I will be talking about some of the early warning signs of lung cancer and how to prevent lung cancer.

1) Persistent Cough:
There are many different causes of coughing. However, if you have a cough that persists and just won’t go away, it could be a cause of concern.

2) Coughing up Blood:
This generally happens when there is bleeding in the lungs or airways. For example, if there’s a tumor in your lungs that continues to expand, it may eventually rupture a blood vessel, leading to bleeding.

3) Night Sweats:
When your body tries to fight cancer, significant changes in hormone levels can trigger excessive sweating.

4) Chest Pain:
Chest pain is one of the most common warning signs of lung cancer. This symptom is especially worrisome if accompanied by dyspnea and shortness of breath.

5) Change in voice:
If you’ve noticed that your voice has become hoarse or raspy, it could be an early warning sign of lung cancer. Change in voice occurs when the vocal cords do not vibrate as they should, creating an unusually breathy sound.

6) Loss of Appetite:
Cancer cells can release substances that alter how your body processes food, leading to a loss of appetite which leads to weight loss in cancer.

7) Weight Loss
If patients with lung cancer have a loss of appetite, it only makes sense that they may start to lose weight as well. It has been estimated that patients with advanced lung cancer may suffer severe weight loss in as many as 70% of cases.

8) Shortness of Breath:
Dyspnea and shortness of breath are two of the most common symptoms of lung cancer. This can occur when a tumor grows and causes an obstruction in the airways of the lungs.

9) Chronic Fatigue:
Chronic fatigue is another hallmark sign of multiple types of cancer, including lung cancer. This is because people with lung cancer may experience dyspnea and hypoxemia.

How to avoid lung cancer:

1) Stop smoking
2) Eat healthy
3) Wear Mask
