Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
No need to worry at all for lung cancer.
It is extremely uncommon at your age.
In my opinion you are having mostly muscular pain.
But better to rule pulmonary causes first.
So get done chest x ray.
If chest x ray is normal then no need to worry for lung cancer as well as other pulmonary causes.
So don't think of lung cancer.
It is mostly muscular pain. Take painkiller and muscle relaxant.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
