No until late: Early lung cancers are usually asymptomatic. They are found incidentally. When they grow and spread, then they may cause obstructiion of airway leading to shortness of breath, bleeding, phlegm and pneumonia. If it's spreaded, the it can cause pain in bone or in other organs involved.

Can be many: Typical symptoms of lung cancer can be unintentional weight loss, coughing up blood, chest pain, night sweats, and some fevers and even pneumonia. But, usually, when you get these symptoms, the cancer is quite advanced. That's the problem with lung cancer: usually, it starts so small that you don't have symptoms. Then, when you do have symptoms, it is frequently too late.

None: Unfortunately, lung cancer is a silent disease. Symptoms such as coughing up blood, shortness of breath, pain or loss of weight are usually late and signify advanced disease. Chest x-rays and ct scans can detect early disease. They are not recommended in your age group because they are not cost-effective, but if you are really worried, get yourself checked.

Nothing specific: You cannot rely on symptoms for early detection. A ct scan of the chest is an effective screening tool in high risk individuals.
