Radiotherapy for lung cancer can cause discomfort, but the treatment itself is painless. Side effects such as fatigue, skin irritation, difficulty swallowing, and chest pain can occur, but the severity varies from person to person. To learn more, connect with me at drjeromepuryear.com. Thank you!
Infrequently the most common pain is related to swallowing but discuss the situation with the doctors.
