Will lung cancer cause hoarseness?

Can lung cancer cause hoarseness?

1. Lung cancer patients generally experience hoarseness. After suffering from lung cancer, they need to seek medical attention in time to prevent the condition from worsening.

2. Lung cancer is a malignant tumor that originates from the bronchial mucosa or glands of the lungs. Its cause is related to the patient's long-term smoking or genetic factors and lung disease history. After the disease, the patient will experience symptoms such as coughing, coughing with blood, and difficulty breathing. At the same time, the patient will also experience hoarseness, because after the patient is ill, the tumor will compress or invade the laryngeal nerve, which is easy to cause vocal cord paralysis and hoarseness. At the same time, the patient's long-term cough will cause vocal cord edema, causing difficulty in speaking, and symptoms of hoarseness, so lung cancer patients will experience hoarseness.

3. Lung cancer patients need to seek medical treatment in time. They can undergo lung resection under the guidance of a doctor. Chemotherapy is also required after surgery. Commonly used drugs include paclitaxel injection, cisplatin injection, etc.

4. During the treatment process, patients should develop good living habits, quit smoking and drinking, and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, so as not to affect the patient's recovery.
