What are the symptoms of advanced lung cancer? Is advanced lung cancer contagious?

Whether advanced lung cancer is contagious depends on the type of lung cancer. If it is a common lung function lesion, this type of lung cancer will not be contagious. Just pay attention to coughing and don't cough at others. However, everyone needs to pay attention to it because the lung caused by tuberculosis is still contagious.

Lung cancer is a lung disease, which mainly causes changes in lung function. Patients will show symptoms of difficulty breathing. Long-term exposure to coughing will make patients feel very uncomfortable. At the beginning, patients may not feel any other changes, but when the disease worsens, they will show some symptoms. Some patients with advanced lung cancer will be particularly worried about whether the disease will be contagious.

Lung cancer cells do not believe in bacteria and viruses. Unless someone shoots the patient's blood into your body, physical contact and eating together under normal circumstances will not cause transmission. However, not all lung cancers are non-contagious. Some lung cancers are also contagious. Everyone needs to be especially careful and actively respond in normal times. Don't wait until the condition worsens to pay attention.

In addition, patients with advanced lung cancer need to pay special attention. Do not spray your sputum and saliva at others. Wrap them in plastic bags and throw them away or destroy them in time. This is because the sputum may contain bacteria flying in the air, which can easily lead to infection. Therefore, try not to have direct contact with the patient and do not cough at others.

In addition, not all lung cancers are non-contagious. Some are lung cancers caused by tuberculosis and pneumoconiosis. These diseases are contagious and can be directly transmitted through sputum, saliva, and secretions. In this case, everyone needs to pay special attention to prevention, choose appropriate methods to cope with treatment, and have professional medical staff to care for them.

Many people will choose to give up treatment in the late stage of lung cancer, but there is no need to give up so easily. Even if lung cancer reaches the late stage, patients can get corresponding treatment effects by combining conservative treatment. Don’t think that lung cancer cannot be cured in the late stage. You can go to places with better air to recuperate, which will be of great help to the recovery of the disease.
