lung cancer symptoms?!
Question: Lung cancer symptoms?
Answers:
If a primary lung cancer were causing chest pain, it almost certainly would show up on chest x-rays. Lung cancers generally do not cause any symptoms until they are very advanced. To have chest pain from a lung cancer to small to see on chest x-ray would be extraordinarily rare.
Also, a primary lung cancer in a 33 year old is extremely rare.
Only 3% of lung cancers are diagnosed in people under age 45.
The average age of diagnosis for lung cancer is 70 years old.

Your need not worry for lung cancer as it has been ruled out by DOC.
It seems DOC told you it to be intercostal muscle pain.
Better talk to your DOC again and clear doubt and get proper treatment.
