15 Warning Signs & Symptoms of Lung Cancer

6) Pain

Pain is a non-specific symptom and can come in various forms and due to various inflammatory, infectious, traumatic reasons. However, a characteristic pattern of pain that includes a new and persistent pain in your chest that radiates towards your shoulders or back can be a warning sign of lung cancer.

Chest pain is a symptom that indicates that something is wrong with your lungs and your body is trying to overcome this issue. Even if your pain is non-radiating and confined to the chest, you should consult your doctor to evaluate the underlying cause.
