Answers:
Cough is probably the most common initial symptoms of lung cancer. Other commonly seen manifestations include haemoptysis (coughing up blood), chest pain, shortness of breath, wheeze, and systemic symptoms (such as weight loss, fevers, night sweats).

Tumours within the lung can show up on a chest X-ray, but they can sometimes be quite difficult to spot in certain positions, such as if they are near the heart or great vessels, or in the far periphery. A CT scan is much more definitive in identifying lung tumours.Health Question & Answer
