Lung Cancer
Lung Cancer is a disease where abnormal cells in the lungs grow uncontrollably, forming a mass or tumor. These cancerous cells can spread to other parts of the body if not treated. Lung cancer often develops over many years and can cause symptoms like a persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, and coughing up blood. However, in its early stages, lung cancer may not cause any noticeable symptoms, making it hard to detect early on.
The most common cause of lung cancer is smoking, but it can also occur in people who have never smoked. Treatment options for lung cancer include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies, depending on the type and stage of cancer. Early detection and treatment are key to improving the chances of successful treatment and survival.
