Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is caused by unchecked cell division in your lungs. Lung cells naturally divide and create additional copies of themselves. Occasionally they experience mutations that lead them to continue to divide without stoppingw. The uncontrolled division of damaged cells results in tissue tumours, which eventually prevent lung from functioning properly. Lung cancer's exact cause is still a mystery. Lung cancer can be brought on by smoking, passive smoking, exposure to specific chemicals, and family history. Smoking, however, is the main contributor to this condition, and long-term smoking has been linked to an increased risk of lung cancer. It has been demonstrated that quitting smoking dramatically lowers a person's risk of lung diseases. Lung cancer can be of two types: non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. Symptoms of lung cancer include general lung dysfuntion, cough with blood, chest pain, wheezing, and weight loss. Surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted medication therapy, and immunotherapy are few examples of possible treatments.
