Possibly lung tumor

2018-09-30 13:28:20
I am having uoper back pain for 4 days now. The pain is not severe, but it feels like pressure from my lungs to the rib case. It increases with activities and it gets worse everyday. I don’t think it’s muscle pain. I’m afraid it might be some kind of lung tumor or other problem with my lungs. I don’t cough, don’t smoke, no phlegm. Maybe I’m paniking but my breathing seems to be harder too. Is there any other posibilities for that kind of pain other than lung cancer?
