Quit smoking! The absence of smoking reduces the risk of lung cancer by 90%. All recent studies show that smoking is the main cause of this disease that is now affecting men and women alike.
In the month of awareness against lung cancer, doctors raise the alarm about the appearance of this disease even among young people. Starting to smoke in adolescence is even more harmful to health.
The number of people affected by lung cancer is almost the same as breast cancer, about 800 new cases every year. However, lung cancer takes the first place for the loss of life, 600 deaths every year. Doctors say that 40% of patients diagnose the disease in advanced stages, when survival becomes difficult.
Early diagnosis of lung cancer prolongs life. Doctors advise not to neglect the symptoms and problems caused by this disease. In addition to smoking, factors that influence the occurrence of this disease are air pollution, foods and family history. (A2 Televizion)
