No smoker will have perfecto lungs an neither will city-dwellers. It is worth it going to the doctor for MANY reasons.
a)To be sure its not lung cancer- If u remove lung cancer before it spreads, your survival rate is very good
b)The chest pain and mucus is obviously causing you discomfort!!! Maybe doctor can help!
c) Maybe another form of lung disease that needs treatment!!!
SO PLEASE!!! GO TO THE DOCTOR!!!
cancer isnt what kills people its not going to the doctor.
nobody can diagnose cancer over the internet if you are concerned you should go to the doctor!
Please if you have any concerns for your health why not go and have a check up by your Doctor.If they feel there could be anything not right with your lungs then they will arrange scans or xrays for you.More then likely you are worrying about nothing but it is great you are taking the right direction in trying to give up smoking.It is never to late .I wish you well.
BABY, THAT'S REALLY GOOD THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO QUIT... BUT AS FAR YOU HAVING LUNG CANCER FROM SHORTNESS OF BREATH, DEEP HOARSE COUGH IT'S NOT LUNG CANCER. I AM A SMOKER AND SOMETIMES I EXPERIENCE THAT IT'S JUST FROM YOU SMOKING TO MUCH OR GETTING ADDICTED, YOU WOULD KNOW IF U HAD LUNG CANCER YOU'LL COUGH UP BLOOD, THE BEST THING IS TO GO THE DOCTOR AND HAVE THEM DO AN X-RAY OF YOUR CHEST THAT'S THE ONLY AND BEST WAY TO FIND OUT IT'S GOOD TO BE ALERT BUT DON'T A HYPERCONDREACT.. THAT'S REALLY GOOD THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO STOP KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND USE YOUR SUPPORT AND RESOURCES..MY CONDELONCES FOR THE LOST OF YOUR FRIEND I KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO LOSE SOMEONE THAT MEANT SOMETHING TO YOU... I HOPE YOU WORK IT OUT..AND STILL REMAIN FOCUSED..

GO TO THE DOCTOR.
It could be bronchitis, Do everything you can to quit, their are many options to help. Pills, some are prescription so you need to see a doctor.
Your symptoms could be emphysema or cancer, but they could also just be a severe smoker's cough. The best thing to do is call the docs office to get a chest x-ray and a follow-up visit with the doc a few days later - you will know for sure what's ailing you. The x-ray might also scare you enough that you will never touch another cigarette again.
