Bronchial stenosis caused by tumor enlargement, cough can be aggravated, mostly persistent, high pitched metal tone. When there is secondary infection in the distal end of bronchial stenosis, the amount of sputum increases, showing mucopurulent sputum.

Symptom 2: chest pain, tumor involving pleura, can produce chest dull pain or dull pain: tumor invasion chest wall ribs or compression intercostal nerve, chest sharp pain, and fixed-point or local tenderness, and with breathing, cough, change position and aggravation.

Symptom 3: facial and neck edema is also a common symptom of advanced lung cancer. If the tumor invades the right side of mediastinum and compresses the superior vena cava, it will initially make the jugular vein distended due to poor reflux, and finally lead to facial and neck edema, which needs timely diagnosis and treatment.
