Persistent Cough

A cough that doesn’t go away, lingers for weeks, or gradually worsens can be an early red flag for lung cancer. Unlike a common cold, this persistent symptom requires medical attention to rule out serious underlying causes

Chest Pain

Lung cancer can cause ongoing chest pain that feels sharp, dull, or constant. Discomfort often worsens when breathing deeply, coughing, or laughing. Unlike temporary muscle aches, this pain signals a serious issue needing medical attention

Coughing up Blood

Even small traces of blood in your cough should never be ignored. This alarming sign may indicate lung cancer or another serious condition. Prompt medical evaluation is essential to identify the cause and begin timely treatment

Shortness of Breath

Feeling unusually winded after light activity, climbing stairs, or even resting could signal lung problems. When airflow is restricted by a tumor, shortness of breath becomes frequent. Persistent breathlessness should always be taken seriously and checked by a doctor

Weight Loss & Fatigue

Unexplained weight loss, constant tiredness, and low energy may signal lung cancer, requiring timely medical evaluation.

Frequent Infections

Swelling in the neck, face, or upper chest can occur when a lung tumor presses on major blood vessels, blocking circulation. This symptom, often overlooked, may signal advanced lung cancer.
