November – Lung Cancer Awareness Month

Lung cancer is the third most common cancer in the United States and the leading cause of death among cancer diagnosis. Every November doctors raise awareness about lung cancer and how to prevent it.

Doctors say the leading cause of cancer is smoking and secondhand smoke for cigarettes and the use of vape and THC products are just as likely to cause cancer and should be avoided.

Anything that you inhale and that can cause inflammation to the lungs will affect the lung tissue and increase your risk for lung disease and cancer.
