How long can you live with bone pain from lung cancer?

1. It is not clear how long a person can live with bone pain caused by lung cancer.

2. Lung cancer originates from malignant tumors of the lung bronchial mucosa or glands, accompanied by symptoms such as cough, blood in sputum or hemoptysis, asthma, chest pain, weight loss, etc. Sometimes patients also experience bone pain, with certain family clustering and genetic susceptibility. Lung cancer patients need early detection and treatment.

3. It is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital for chest X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, pleural effusion cytology, etc. to clarify the cause. Painkillers can be taken for bone pain caused by lung cancer, such as ibuprofen sustained-release tablets, loxoprofen sodium tablets, etc. Patients with lung cancer can also receive chemotherapy, which is the main treatment for lung cancer. Chemotherapy can inhibit the bone marrow hematopoietic system, mainly the decrease of white blood cells and platelets. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and platelet-stimulating factor can be used for treatment. If necessary, lung wedge and local resection, lobectomy, segmentectomy, bronchial sleeve lobectomy and other surgeries are also required to treat lung cancer.
