Please use Practo to take an appointment to meet me at my clinic. I need to examine you both clinically and radiologically. Rest assured, it is not even remotely related to cancer. About lungs, it may be related as nose is that part of your lungs that you can put your finger into. So any problem in nose will have issues in lungs too and vice versa.
