Overview

History

Symptoms

Early small cell carcinoma of the lung does not have any symptoms. As the tumor grows larger, people may notice one or more of the following symptoms:

  • Cough that does not go away
  • Iterative infections such as bronchitis or pneumonia
  • New onset of wheezing

Other health problems may also cause these symptoms. Only a doctor can tell for sure. A person with any of these symptoms should tell the doctor so that the problems can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.
