Lung cancer: Eleven symptoms that indicate a tumor - not just a cough. Every year in Germany, around 57,500 people develop lung cancer, also known as bronchial carcinoma.

The symptoms associated with the tumor disease often go unnoticed for a long time. It is advisable to know warning signs and to seek medical help if symptoms persist. Men are more likely to develop the disease than women, but the stage of the disease is the same in both sexes. The final stage of lung cancer can lead to an almost normal life for almost years to come.
