What are some obvious symptoms of lung cancer in an 84 year old man? Often, sadly enough, there are no early symptoms til lung cancer is in its later stages. I had a pain under my ribs, thought it was a bronchial attack.. had xrays, suspicious masses found.. ended up with multiple scans, biopsy and diagnosed with stage iv lung cancer.. never saw that coming!! So its important to get unknown pain checked out, listen to your body. Even at stage iv, I still don't have the symptoms listed yet was given only a few months to live at my diagnosis.. weird.. but it happens.. be careful and be safe. Clubbed nails and wheezing is a sign of all respiratory diseases, not just lung cancer. An elderly former or current smoker with lung infiltrates (as seen on x-ray) along with a cough and purulent sputum (with or without fever) should be assumed to have lung cancer until proved otherwise. Other potential lung cancer symptoms besides chronic cough would be weakness, fatigue and pneumonia-like symptoms. Signs you can see obviously are wheezing/shortness of breath and clubbed fingers. |
