What are the symptoms of advanced lung cancer before death?

Lung cancer is just a cough at the beginning, and sometimes people cough up blood when the cough is severe. Usually, it is at this time that people will pay attention and go to the hospital for examination. However, many people wait until they cough up blood, have unbearable chest pain, and take medicines to see if they have much effect before going to the hospital for examination. When they go to the hospital for examination, it is found that they are in the late stage of lung cancer. Many people may want to know what obvious symptoms there are before death from lung cancer. Let's take a look.

1. Hoarseness is a more obvious symptom of advanced lung cancer. The nerve that controls the voice is from the neck to the chest. This nerve bypasses the heart and returns to the throat, thus controlling the left vocal organ. In the advanced stage of lung cancer, the tumor will invade the left side of the diaphragm, so that the recurrent laryngeal nerve will be compressed, and hoarseness will occur. However, there will be no symptoms of sore throat and inflammation at this time.

2. In the late stage of lung cancer, cancer cells will invade the pleura, which will also cause symptoms of pleural effusion, and it will be bloody. And such effusion will cause difficulty breathing. And the tumor invading the chest cavity will cause chest pain. And such pain is very severe. This is also a more obvious symptom of lung cancer before death.

3. Another thing is that lung cancer can cause swelling of the face and neck. The tumor will invade the right superior vena cava, causing poor blood flow and edema of the upper neck and face.

4. Lung cancer cells can also invade and compress the organs and tissues at the upper opening of the thorax, causing pain and edema, as well as upper arm movement disorders. Facial organs can also change due to cancer invasion, and the pain can also reduce the patient's appetite, causing severe weight loss.
