Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is an extremely rare lung disease caused by inhaling fine silica dust found in volcanoes. Statistics on the annual incidence of this disease are not readily available, but it is considered one of the rarest lung diseases in the world.
lung cancer which is the most one people know aboutother wise it could come from any where else in your body
The longest word in an encyclopedia is typically "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis," which refers to a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine silicate or quartz dust. It is often cited as one of the longest words in the English language.
No, emphysema is not related to the bones. It is a chronic, progressive lung disease.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico-volcanosis is "a factitious word alleged to mean 'a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust usually found in volcanos'.It was coined to serve as supposedly the longest English word. The more general and widely used term for this condition is pneumoconiosis, also known as black lung disease. There is one form of the disease that is specifically called silicosis.
While nicotine has effects on blood flow, these effects are not as significant as the damage to the lung and irritation of the air passages to the lung. One such problem is "smoker's cough", caused by damage to the epithelia of the windpipe. Emphysema caused by the body's immune response to cigarette smoke causes a major loss in lung function and debilitating disease.
No, emphysema is not a form of cancer. Emphysema is a type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that is characterized by the destruction of the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. This leads to difficulty breathing, as the damaged air sacs are unable to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide effectively. Emphysema is usually caused by long-term exposure to irritants, such as tobacco smoke, pollution, and chemical fumes. It is a progressive disease, which means that it gets worse over time. While emphysema does not directly cause cancer, people with emphysema are at increased risk of developing lung cancer due to the damage caused to their lungs by the disease. Additionally, smoking is a major risk factor for both emphysema and lung cancer.
Black lung disease: A chronic occupational lung disease contracted by the prolonged breathing of coal mine dust. The silica and carbon in the coal dust cause black lung disease. About one of every 20 miners studied in the US has X-ray evidence of black lung disease, a form of pneumoconiosis.
One gives you lung cancer and the other gives you schizophrenia
