If having chest pain would a lung tumor more than likely show on a x-ray all my blood work is good hemoglobin was17.8 x-ray clear anything to worry?

Rarely: Does lung cancer cause pain. Most lung cancers are asymptomatic until they are advanced stage. However, just because CXR is clear doesn't mean there is nothing there. CT is much better for detecting lung cancers.
