Coughing up blood, chest pain? Non-smokers can also get lung cancer! These 5 types of people should get a CT scan immediately

2 people die from lung cancer every minute! Lung cancer has always been the number one cancer mortality rate, but early detection has a cure rate of over 80%! Don’t treat these symptoms as ordinary coughs

1️⃣ Six major signs of lung cancer

⚠️ Dry cough for more than 2 weeks (especially worse at night)

⚠️ Blood in sputum, chest pain

⚠️ Hoarseness for more than 1 month

⚠️ Fingers become thicker (clubbed fingers)

⚠️ Unexplained weight loss (lost 10 pounds in half a year)

⚠️ Bone pain, headache (may have metastasized)

2️⃣ Five most dangerous types of people

✅ Smokers/second-hand smokers (smokers for 20 years↑ risk increases 10 times!)

✅ Long-term exposure to oil smoke (housewives/chefs)

✅ Asbestos/coal smoke/radon gas exposure

✅ Family history of lung cancer

✅ Chronic lung disease (tuberculosis, pulmonary fibrosis)

3️⃣ Life-saving screening combination

▫️ Low-dose CT: once a year from the age of 40, 10 times more accurate than X-rays!

▫️ Tumor markers: blood test for CEA, CYFRA21-1

▫️ Bronchoscopy: long-term coughing and hemoptysis must be checked

Treatment in stages

▪️ Early stage: minimally invasive surgical resection, 5-year survival rate 90%

▪️ Mid-term: surgery + chemotherapy + radiotherapy

▪️ Late stage: targeted drugs/immunotherapy (genetic testing matching)

Three-piece set for cancer prevention

✅ Quit smoking immediately! Quitting smoking for 10 years reduces the risk of lung cancer by 50%

✅ Cooking with a range hood + wearing a mask (to prevent PM2.5)

✅ Eat 1 apple + 2 kinds of dark green vegetables every day
