ASBESTOS CAUSES LUNG CANCER

ASBESTOS CAUSES  LUNG CANCER

Asbestos laung cancer is  very  hazardous lung cancer. however asbestos causes many types of cancer like mesothelioma cancer, lung cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer and many other cancer which are due to asbestos. but the asbestos causes lung cancer very much. 
  

the reason behind is that  exposure to asbestos through the mouthstream is extremely affect the lungs. there is 100% chances that the fibers of asbestos lodged or fixed over the lung. due to this the expansion and contraction become very hard to victim.asbestos causes most damaged by being.


How Is Asbestos Used

Hello friends ,
                       I am here to tell  you about how asbestos is
 used . it's sounds to be  shameless that most of the people  of the world do not know about the asbestos and how is asbestos causes lung cancer . so first i will tell  you that how is asbestos used in different different fields.


The use of asbestos is increases due to its following characteristics 

1. Asbestos possesses  physical and chemical properties like
      -  they are insoluble in water 
      -  nonflammable 
      -  tensile stress is much higher than steel
      -  tremendous thermal stability
      
Asbestos has become more valuable in construction line due to their  physical and chemical characteristic . most of the co-operation are using  asbestos without any restriction. 

asbestos firstly used in linings of steam engine in 1828. after that it was used in construction field before 1980s in united state. Due to its fireproof property it was used in steel rods , beams and columns during the construction. 

Asbestos possess high strength ,so it was mixed in concrete ,vinyl materials in roof shingles, pipes, siding, wall board, floor tiles, joint compounds and adhesives

Asbestos was also used in thermal insulation due to its fireproof property.  


As i above discussed about the asbestos causes lung cancer .


Lung cancer symptoms

1.change in cough 
2.It is very hard to take breath
3.painful breathing
4.wheezing (due to asbestos causes lung cancer the airways contracted and the lungs produces whistling sound) 
5.Hoarseness 
6.sudden loss in weight 
7.bone pain
8.aching in head




TYPES OF  LUNG CANCER

Their are generally two types of lung cancer 
1. small cells lung cancer(SCLC)
2.non-small cells lung cancer(NSCLC)

NON SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER

non small cell lung cancer is most common type of lung cancer . most of the cancer about 85%  is related to non small cell lung cancer . in united state most of people are suffer from Adenocarcinoma type lung cancer  which is the sub-type of NSCLC .

There are 4 stages of NSCLC 
1 Stage - the cancer is only develop in lungs and has not spread to any other organs or lymph nodes. this is starting stage so it is very hard to diagnose it .  

2 stage - After starting , cancer cells start to spread around the lymph nodes and due to this reason the maximum part of  lungs is covered by cancer cells.

3 stage - in this stage cancer is develop around the lymph nodes and the middle part of lungs. it is described as locally advanced disease. 

4 stage - this is also designated as  advanced  disease. in this stage the cancer cells  cover the very much part of lungs and also spread out through the lungs to the other body organs.

 

SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER 

This type of lung cancer  tend to grow very quickly than non small cell lung cancer. 
there are also two stages 
1. limiting stage - in this stage cancer is found only one side of chest.
2. Extensive stage - In this stage, cancer  tend to  grow  other regions of the chest or other parts of the body.
