Home treatment often can help relieve minor aches and pains. Injuries are the most common cause of shoulder pain. A sudden (acute) injury may occur from a fall on an outstretched arm, a direct blow to the shoulder, or abnormal twisting or bending of the shoulder.Pain may be sudden and severe. Bruising and swelling may develop soon after the injury.f nerves or blood vessels have been injured or pinched during the injury, the shoulder, arm, or hand may feel numb, tingly, weak, or cold, or it may look pale or blue. Acute injuries include: 1  Bruises (contusions), which occur when small blood vessels under the skin tear or rupture, often from a twist, bump, or fall.
Even these patients, however, are at risk of dying from lung cancer (both small and non-small cell types).[20] The overall survival at 5 years is 5% to 10%.[1,20-22] An important prognostic factor for SCLC is the extent of disease.
As more cancer cells develop, they can form into a tumor and spread to other areas of the body. To learn more about how cancers start and spread, see What Is Cancer? Types of lung cancer. The 2 main types of lung cancer are: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which is sometimes called oat cell cancer. About 10% to 15% of lung cancers are SCLC. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which makes up about 80% to 85% of lung cancers. The 3 main types of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Small cell and non-small cell lung cancers are treated differently. The information here focuses on small cell lung cancer. See Lung Cancer (Non-Small Cell) for information about that type of lung cancer. Other types of lung cancer and tumors. Lung carcinoid tumors: Less than 5% of lung tumors are carcinoid tumors of the lung. Most of these grow slowly. For more information about these tumors, see Lung Carcinoid Tumor.
