What are the symptoms of lung cancer patients before they die? What are the symptoms of lung cancer patients in the late stage before they die?

In order to better understand lung cancer, many people want to have a comprehensive understanding of the survival status of lung cancer in the late stage, so as to take timely treatment. Generally speaking, the symptoms of lung cancer in the late stage are mainly fever, chest pain, shortness of breath, coughing up blood, etc.; in the late stage, the patient will be in great pain, and the most important thing at this time is to control and stabilize the condition.

Lung cancer not only destroys the functions of the human organs, but also destroys the body's immune function, causing the body's yin and yang to lose balance, leading to organ failure and the appearance of pre-mortem symptoms of late-stage lung cancer, thus causing death.

Symptoms before death in advanced lung cancer

1. Lump: formed by the malignant proliferation of cancer cells, which can be felt by hand on the surface or deep inside the body. Cancer of the thyroid, parotid or breast can be felt in the shallow part of the skin. Tumor metastasis to lymph nodes can cause lymph node enlargement. Some superficial lymph nodes, such as cervical lymph nodes and axillary lymph nodes, are easy to feel.

2. Pain: Pain often indicates that cancer has entered the middle or late stages. It usually starts as dull pain or dull pain, which is more obvious at night. It gradually gets worse and becomes unbearable, day and night. Severe pain is a symptom of late-stage lung cancer before death. If it occurs, it is usually controlled by drugs. Pain is generally caused by cancer cells invading the nerves. Many people feel extremely painful in the late stages, and even taking medicine does not work.

3. Ulcers: They are caused by the rapid growth of cancerous tissues in some surface cancers, insufficient nutrition supply, and tissue necrosis. For example, some breast cancers may cause crater-like or cauliflower-like ulcers in the breasts, secreting bloody secretions, and may have a foul odor when complicated by infection. In addition, stomach and colon cancers can also form ulcers, which can generally only be observed through gastroscopy and colonoscopy.

4. Bleeding: It is caused by cancer tissue invading blood vessels or rupture of small blood vessels in cancer tissue. For example, lung cancer patients may cough up blood and have blood in sputum; patients with stomach, colon, and esophageal cancer may have blood in their stool.

Late-stage lung cancer can cause bleeding symptoms. If the condition is not controlled, it will lead to terminal symptoms of lung cancer, causing lung cancer patients to suffer and be in excruciating pain.

When lung cancer reaches the late stage, cancer cells continue to spread, and patients are basically in excruciating pain. Drugs can only maintain the disease but cannot cure it. At this time, family members should understand the patient's irritability and try to arrange a good environment and good diet to keep the patient in a good mood, so that the patient can better accept treatment and avoid regrets.
