9. Shoulder Pain

If you are experiencing sharp, shooting or tingling aches down the shoulder, inner arm, and hands, this could be very bad news for you. That’s because it often indicates that the tumor has grown so large that it is pressing against the top of the lungs, nerves, and armpit. Unfortunately, this is a symptom often associated with late-stage cancer and could mean that the cancer would be difficult to treat.

Additionally, you may also experience pain, tenderness or soreness in areas such as the rib cage or armpits. It would be accompanied by symptoms such as swollen lymph nodes, bodily pain, and facial swelling. If any of this sounds familiar to you, you should make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible!
