What are the general ways to prevent lung cancer? Three major countermeasures to teach you how to effectively prevent lung cancer

As we all know, smoking is very harmful to health. Excessive smoking can lead to a series of lung diseases, lung cancer being the most important one. Therefore, quitting smoking is the most effective way to prevent lung cancer. So, in addition to this, what other ways are there to prevent lung cancer? Let's take a look!

According to relevant experts, clinical findings in recent years have shown that the incidence of lung cancer is becoming younger and more feminine, and lung cancer patients aged 20 to 40 are often found in the wards.

Experts pointed out that in the five years from 2000 to 2005, the number of lung cancer cases in China increased by 26.9% among men and 41.6% among women, with the increase in female lung cancer being 14.7 percentage points higher than that in men. Lung cancer is now the leading cause of death among female malignant tumors.

In order to effectively curb the rising trend of lung cancer in women, relevant experts have proposed corresponding countermeasures.

Countermeasure 1: Pay attention to the feminization of lung cancer. Preventing lung cancer in women and curbing the rising trend of lung cancer incidence and mortality in women should be a priority in women's health care.

Countermeasure 2: Control female smoking, strengthen the publicity of the view that female smoking is more harmful, and arouse the vigilance of women, especially young women. Persuade female smokers to quit smoking, drink more tea, and take vitamin C tablets orally, at least 1000 mg per day.

Countermeasure 3: Women should avoid passive smoking and reduce the damage of kitchen fumes. Smokers should not smoke in offices, meeting rooms, public places or at home. They should smoke in open spaces with good air circulation or smoking rooms. Women should take the initiative to stay away from the environment of "second-hand smoke". On the other hand, kitchen ventilation and fume exhaust conditions should be improved, and incorrect cooking methods should be changed, such as not waiting for the hot pan to emit fumes before cooking.
