Yes, absolutely: Lung cancer patient can still jog or run. Yes, absolutely. Just use your common sense. If you feel well , not feeling tired- absoultely you can jog or run. You need to listen to your body. Get some rest if you must. Dont exert yourself too much. I always encourage everybody to keep active as much as possible.

Depends: The level of physical activity of any person depends on the functions of heart, lungs, muscles and nerves. As long as those are intact an early, small lung cancer by itself would not limit activity.
