This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether acupressure—a technique where you apply gentle pressure to specific points on your body—can help reduce cough and other symptoms in people who have survived lung cancer. Many lung cancer survivors struggle with persistent cough that affects their daily life, energy levels, and breathing. This study will teach you how to perform acupressure on yourself at home to see if it can help ease these symptoms.
Cough is one of the most common and bothersome symptoms for lung cancer survivors, and it often comes along with shortness of breath and fatigue. Researchers want to find a safe, simple method that patients can do themselves at home to help manage this symptom and improve quality of life.

You will attend two training sessions at the hospital to learn how to perform acupressure correctly. After that, you will practice acupressure at home every day for eight weeks, pressing 15 specific points on your body for about one minute each, at least twice daily (morning and evening), plus extra times whenever you feel a cough coming on. The study team will check in with you to see how the acupressure is working and how your cough and other symptoms are changing over the eight weeks.
