What are the symptoms of lung cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: on the extent, location, and type of lung cancer. There may be no symptoms with a small tumor. With more extensive involvement, there may be constitutional symptoms such as weight loss. There are numerous non metastatic potential disorders(paraneoplastic syndromes). There may be cough, chest pain, or hemoptysis depending on the local extent.
