Why do people who have never smoked develop lung cancer? |
Why do people who have never smoked develop lung cancer? when you live in a big city like new-york, mumbai, hong-kong, mexico.... you breathe smoke from all the cars and bus (and rickshaws), equal to one or two pack of cigarettes/day... because other pollutants like the smoke from open fires seem to cause lung problems too I first noticed this years ago with old ladies who had never smoked but had spent their lives cooking and boiling water over open wood fires seemed to have as much lung cancer as the men who did.smoke because they die of emphysema or heart disease first The carcinogens in cigarette smoke are such that anyone who lives long enough will get lung cancer. Some people have good immune systems. These people tend to do better because the immune system can kill cancerous cells. However, it's like any statistical thing - if you keep smoking long enough you are almost certain to get lung cancer, and then there is a very small population who will smoke and smoke and never get lung cancer for one reason or another. Most people are not in that population, and the other thing here is that cigarettes can kill you in a number of ways. its just like , people who have never had sex develop aids . there are too many things which cause such diseases. too much has gone wrong in this world because of the pollution and eating habits .sorry Cancer can attack any part of the body, whether u smoked or not It chooses no particular life style or age or habits. It is cells that suddenly grow rampant within any body organ or system. If scientists knew what triggered the multiplying of cells, they could possibly find a cure. Some people will just get it through bad luck, from having other cancers, or from other pollutants. The bottom line is that no-one fully understands cancer but it does seem to happen randomly to everyone, and some activities (such as smoking, environmental pollutants etc) make it more likely. Current science suggests that genetic susceptibility is far more of a contributing factor than anything else. Hi Lung cancer,for that matter any cancer is multifactorial.smoking is one of the causes of lung cancer and not the sole cause.other factors are environmental pollution.occupational asbestosis,genetic predisposition.M sure that there are more idiopathic unidentified causes. Still smoking is the worst enemy of lungs.KEEP AWAY FROM SMOKING. |
