Lung cancer

Estimated new U.S. cases in 2018: 234,030

Signs of lung cancer include:

A persistent cough that doesn’t go away and gets worse over time
Coughing up blood
Wheezing or shortness of breath
Constant chest pain
Bone pain
Hoarseness or other voice changes
Regular lung infections (like pneumonia or bronchitis)
Losing weight without trying
Not feeling hungry
Frequent headaches
Blood clots

Lung cancer doesn’t usually cause symptoms until it’s advanced (also referred to as late-stage cancer). That’s because your lungs have few nerve endings, so tumors can grow there without causing pain. If you have any of the signs above, see your doctor to get tested for lung cancer and other possible causes, such as asthma.
