So what are the signs suggestive of lung cancer that should alert? Lung cancer: cause of death from lung cancer Cancer: non-specific symptoms What is the treatment of lung cancer?
With approximately 39,500 estimated new cases in 2011, of which three quarters in men, lung cancer is the fourth most common cancer. In humans, it ranks 2nd of male cancers with 27,500 new cases. In women, it is the third cancer with 12,000 new cases in 2011. But in women, this cancer is steadily shingles symptoms increasing, with an incidence that has tripled over the past 20 years because of smoking among women.
The picture is even more dramatic in terms of mortality: in France and worldwide, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death. Indeed, despite therapeutic advances, the prognosis remains bleak, with 5-year survival does not exceed 14%.
How to explain this high rate of lung cancer mortality? Lung cancer is often diagnosed late, which greatly reduces the chances of recovery. And that late diagnosis is the fact that symptoms appear only late in the disease. Thus, in addition to prevention based on the fight against smoking, the challenge is to identify as early as possible signs suggestive of lung cancer ... and encourage smokers and ex-smokers to consult.
Smoking: one risk factor shingles symptoms for lung cancer Smoking is by far the leading risk factor for lung cancer. More rarely, exposure shingles symptoms to toxins, particularly in the context of a professional activity shingles symptoms (even older), can also be the cause: asbestos, arsenic, nickel, cobalt, chromium, radon, etc.
At first, the lung tumor results in no symptoms. It is only when the tumor grows or spread to other nearby tissues as the pleura that signs can occur, and again, these are still not specific to lung cancer.
But here are a list of signs that should alert and bring to visit, especially if they occur in a smoker or ex-smoker: A cough that drags on, which intensified shingles symptoms instead of disappearing gradually. Bronchial infections shingles symptoms repetitions. Shortness of breath. Spitting up blood (even very little). A change in the voice, the voice becomes hoarse for weeks. A permanent swelling of the neck and face.
The mistake to avoid: If that routine morning cough is something normal in a smoker. It is normal for a smoker to have a continuously bronchitis, shortness of breath shingles symptoms and tired. These symptoms should lead to consult. And when in doubt, the doctor will recommend a chest x-ray, bronchoscopy or CT scan.
