Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
If you feel pain when pressing on a certain point, then don't press.
It's not that difficult.
If you are scared about cancer, then why do you smoke?
You shouldn't be afraid of cancer if you are a smoker.
Consult a pulmonologist in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
