9 Symptoms of Lung Cancer

Persistent Cough: A chronic cough that doesn't go away or worsens over time is one of the most common symptoms of lung cancer.

Chest Pain: Persistent chest pain that worsens with deep breathing, coughing, or laughing may indicate lung cancer.

Shortness of Breath: Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, even during routine activities, may occur as lung cancer grows and affects lung function

, Wheezing or Hoarseness : Wheezing, a high-pitched whistling sound when breathing, or hoarseness, changes in the voice, may result from airway obstruction caused by lung cancer

Coughing up Blood: Blood in the sputum or phlegm coughed up from the lungs, known as hemoptysis, can be a sign of lung cancer.

, Unexplained Weight Loss : Significant and unintentional weight loss, without changes in diet or exercise habits, may occur as lung cancer progresses.

, Fatigue : Persistent fatigue, weakness, or lack of energy that doesn't improve with rest can be a symptom of lung cancer, often related to the body's response to the disease

Loss of Appetite: A decrease in appetite or feeling full after eating small amounts of food may occur as lung cancer affects metabolism and energy levels

Bone Pain or Headaches: If lung cancer spreads to other parts of the body, such as the bones or brain, it may cause symptoms such as bone pain (especially in the back or hips) or headaches
