August 1: World Lung Cancer Day
Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. However, detecting it at an early stage significantly increases the chances of effective treatment.
Even if you do not smoke, you may still be at risk from:
-
Secondhand smoke
-
PM2.5 particulate matter
-
Air pollution
-
Genetic factors
Do not wait for symptoms to appear. If you are at risk or experience any unusual symptoms, please consult a physician for a proper evaluation.
