Lung cancer is one of the many types of cancer that strike the world’s population every year, with the symptoms only showing as the disease progresses. There is a simple test that can determine whether someone may be suffering from this disease.
Express reports that a person who may be suffering from lung cancer may also be suffering from paraneoplastic syndromes. This kind of disorder is usually brought on by small-cell lung cancer cells and it can attack other parts of the nervous system, not just the lungs. The American Cancer Society notes that syndromes like the Lambert-Eaton syndrome as an example. This syndrome results in the muscles around the hips to weaken.
An indicator of this syndrome can be seen through a standing and sitting test. If a person has trouble getting up from a sitting position, then it is possible they would be suffering from Lambert-Eaton syndrome. Later stages of this disorder will also see the shoulder muscles weaken as well. This would result in the possibility of a person suffering from lung cancer as the root of it all.
Further noting, other changes brought on by small cell lung cancer are in behavior, vision, and sensations among other kinds of nervous system disorders.
There are many causes of lung cancer, and the most common cause is excessive smoking and air pollution. Smokers make up a big portion of patients who suffer from lung cancer. Non-smokers can also unfortunately suffer from this disease, this is mostly attributed to inhaling secondhand smoke from smoking areas, as well as air pollution and exposure to chemicals like asbestos. Previous respiratory diseases may also play a part in how big a risk would a person have to lung cancer.
Prevention is better than the cure, and it is important to keep the lungs as healthy as the heart and the rest of the body. Some ways to maintain healthy lungs is through simple breathing exercises, drinking plenty of water, paying attention to one’s posture, engaging in physical activity, and even doing something as simple as laughing can help keep the lungs healthy.
