The past 12 months of living in a pandemic have certainly made us all more aware of our health, and rightly so. Many people are now aware that a cough could be covid, but it could also be lung cancer. As well as a cough, there are a few other vital lung cancer symptoms that you may not be aware of.
Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation, see it as their duty to raise awareness of the symptoms of lung cancer. The obvious symptoms and the not-so obvious.
Lung cancer won’t wait for the pandemic to be over, so, as well as a persistent cough, it is critical that as many people as possible are aware of other less commonly known symptoms of the disease.
Here are five symptoms of lung cancer that you might not be aware of:
- Hoarseness
- Swollen face
- Weightloss
- Finger clubbing
- Repeat chest infections
