summary

For lung cancer, a disease, we need to do a good job in peacetime to understand the relevant work, so that when we encounter this disease, we can understand the symptoms of advanced lung cancer, so that we can save a lot of trouble in the examination and treatment.

What are the symptoms of advanced lung cancer

Symptom 1: facial and neck edema is also a common symptom of advanced lung cancer. If the tumor invades the right side of the 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. 　 　　

Symptom 2: hoarseness is one of the late symptoms of lung cancer. The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), which controls the left vocal function, descends from the neck to the chest, bypasses the great blood vessels of the heart and goes up to the larynx, thus dominating the left side of the vocal organ. Therefore, if the tumor invades the left side of the mediastinum and compresses the recurrent laryngeal nerve, hoarseness will occur, but there are no other symptoms of sore throat and upper respiratory tract infection.

Symptom 3: shortness of breath and pleural effusion are also the symptoms of advanced lung cancer.
