Smoking does not develop lung cancer, it causes cancer to develop in your lungs. The toxic chemicals in cigarette smoke irritate the tissues in the lungs. After a prolonged period of first-hand, or second-hand, smoke inhaled into the sensitive tissues of the lungs, the cells may become cancerous and replicate out of control, resulting in lung cancer.
The development of lung cancer from smoking can vary, but it typically takes several years of smoking before the disease may develop. However, the exact timeline can differ based on individual factors such as genetics, frequency of smoking, and overall health. It is important to note that quitting smoking at any time can reduce the risk of developing lung cancer.

The biggest cause of lung cancer is smoking, approximately 36,000 people in the U.K. die from lung cancer every year, 90% of those lung cancer deaths are from smoking. If you are a non-smoker there is a risk that you can get lung cancer from passive smoking, though the risk is not as high than if you smoke yourself. Passive smoking could be responsible for several hundred, lung cancer cases every year. Another possible cause of lung cancer is exposure to certain chemicals and substances such as asbestos, radon gas and nickel, but this is very rare. Air pollution has also been suspected as a cause of lung cancer, but this has not been proved.
