What are the causative factors of lung cancer? Four reasons can lead to the occurrence of lung cancer

Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor at present. As the current environment gradually deteriorates, the incidence of lung cancer increases year by year and the mortality rate of the disease is also quite high. So, what factors cause lung cancer?

1. Urban Pollution:

Epidemiological surveys show that the higher the degree of industrialization and modernization in a city, the higher the incidence of lung cancer. Moreover, nowadays, more and more farmland is being developed into high-rise buildings, leaving fewer green fields and more gray buildings. The pollution that originally belonged to the city is gradually spreading to the countryside, which is even more dangerous.

2. Decoration pollution:

The latest research results published by the World Health Organization show that indoor radon has become the second largest cause of lung cancer after smoking, and lung cancer cases caused by radon account for 3-14% of all lung cancer cases in various regions. Therefore, you should try to use environmentally friendly materials when decorating, and don’t move in right after the decoration is completed. You should also pay attention to ventilation at ordinary times.

3. Cloudy days:

Haze is even more likely to cause lung cancer than tobacco. The particles suspended in the air on haze days are difficult to disperse and are easily absorbed by the human body. These particles may directly adhere to the respiratory tract and lung lobes, causing rhinitis, bronchitis and other diseases; if this continues for a long time, it will induce lung cancer.

4. Oil smoke:

The survey found that young and middle-aged women who are exposed to high-temperature fumes while cooking in the kitchen for a long time will increase their risk of lung cancer by 2-3 times. Therefore, female friends must pay attention to the cleanliness and ventilation of the kitchen, reduce high-temperature frying, and don't be too superstitious about range hoods.

The incidence of lung cancer is quite high, and the mortality rate is also particularly high, so we must be vigilant about the occurrence of the disease. After understanding the various factors that cause lung cancer, we must stay away from these pathogenic factors in our daily lives to prevent the occurrence of the disease.
