What are the symptoms of lung cancer in children

Once a disease occurs, treatment needs to be timely, but some diseases have unclear signs and are easily overlooked, such as lung cancer. Having lung cancer is a very scary thing, and early detection is necessary. Some people think that lung cancer is an incurable disease, but this is not the case. The early stage of the disease is the best treatment period.

Chinese medicine experts tell us that the early signs of lung cancer cannot be ignored by patients. Many patients with early lung cancer have cough as an early symptom, which is often similar to a cold or bronchitis at the onset, so it is easy to be ignored. Therefore, people who have no chronic respiratory diseases in the past, especially those over 40 years old, should be alert to the possibility of lung cancer if their cough persists for more than three weeks after active treatment, and further examination is required. As for elderly patients with chronic bronchitis, the incidence of lung cancer is higher than that of ordinary people, but their early cough symptoms are often easily confused with the original chronic cough, and there are many cases of delayed diagnosis. At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to the changes in the nature and regularity of cough. Due to the stimulation of cancer tissue on the bronchial mucosa, lung cancer patients often have irritating coughs and severe coughs with little sputum, which is inconsistent with the original four-season disease pattern. Active anti-infection treatment is ineffective, and the symptoms are aggravated.

In addition, if people find themselves coughing and coughing up blood in their daily lives, this is the most terrifying thing, and everyone should be cautious. Because hemoptysis is clinically considered the second most common symptom of lung cancer. It is often caused by cancer tissue invading the bronchial mucosa. The amount of hemoptysis is generally small, often with bloody sputum, which can last for weeks, months or intermittently. Because the amount of hemoptysis is small or occurs intermittently, it is easy to be neglected. In fact, about 1/4 of those who have bloody sputum in middle-aged and older people are caused by lung cancer.

The above explains to you that the early signs of lung cancer cannot be ignored by patients. I believe everyone understands that the early signs of lung cancer cannot be ignored by patients. Don’t ignore lung cancer and make sure to detect and treat it early.
