Hi, Thanks for writing in. A slight hardened nose is unlikely to be a lung cancer. Symptoms of lung cancer might include the following. Cough which does not improve on treatments of weight more than 10 percent in 2 monthsBlood in sputum which cannot be explainedLumps around the exchange in voiceRegular respiratory infectionPlease get a cancer screening done at your nearest hospital and also have chest X-ray done. Please do not worry.
