If you inhale or breath harmful stuff into your lungs, like smoke, drugs, or second hand smoke (which is worse than actually doing it) too much, you could get lung or throat cancer.

Ever seen that commercial with the lady with the throat plug? She smoked too much.

More much statistically and epidemiologically sound studies have suggested that breathing in the fumes from a gas cooker or fire at home increase the risk of lung cancer more than that for secondhand smoke.

Over sixty possible factors contributing to lung cancer have been identified, including drinking full fat milk and taking antibiotics.

Cancer can strike any gender or age group. Depending on the cancer type, various cancer treatments may be initiated in an effort to eradicate or kill cancer cells.

Chemotherapytreatment, radiotherapy treatment, and breast cancer surgery are the most common types of treatments that battle multiple forms of cancer. However, cancer treatments vary according to the stage of cancer is discovered, as well as location and overall health of the patient. Cancer staging is typically defined as Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3 and Stage 4, ranging from early and localized to those that have spread throughout the body.
