Development Of Lung Cancer

Cancer is a deadly dangerous disease that kills human life. Cancer survivors are most care needed people. They must be taken to the cancer centers soon after the symptoms of cancer begin to build up in the person. Cancer centers are really taking good care of the patients by telling them what to do and what not to do. The patients are made to listen to the doctors keenly and follow their instructions carefully. Medications are provided for the patients to reduce the pain in the affected parts of the body. A clear schedule of the food items and diet are given to the caregivers of the patients and counseling is given to the caregivers about how to treat the patients at home and anywhere outside. The patients should not feel lonely as loneliness may be even more hurtful for them as they feel being isolated from others. The doctors and nurses at the cancer centers are very caring that they treat patients well by understanding their problem clearly and then treating them accordingly.

The important system of human body is the immune system which protects the human body from being affected by any disease easily. This disease fighting system should be protected and it is spoiled by human activities knowingly or unknowingly. Smoking is one such deadly habit that paves way for cancer which can happen in lung in this case. Cancer is all about developing dangerous cancer cells that multiplies and the health cells present in the body are ruined by cancer cells completely thereby affecting the immune system of the body. As a consequence of this, the body becomes easy entry for any disease and tortures a person completely. As always one thing leads to another the cancer survivor starts to shelter all the diseases and the number of days left for his/her death decreases gradually. The person would be affected mentally too, as he/she would know that graveyards are ready for them and loses peace and happiness completely. Since smoking is the major cause for all these problems, this activity should be completely banned all over the world to build up a healthy environment at least for our future generations to enjoy.

The important organ of human that is used for purification of blood is lung. The impure blood from the heart is purified by oxygenating the blood and sending it back to the heart for pumping it to other parts of the body. The breath in air contains oxygen that is used to purify blood. When a person smokes, the intake air contains less oxygen and more toxic tobacco smoke which enters the lungs, thereby decreasing the oxygen availability in the blood. Thus breathing becomes difficult and soon the person gets chest pain, back pain etc. It happens not only for the people who smoke but also for the people who do not smoke. Non-smokers have 24% risk for getting cancer in lungs as smokers. People who smoke know that smoking is injurious to health but still they smoke because they think only chain smokers get cancer and smoking once in a blue moon day does not affect much. The fact is not so. Whenever smoke is inhaled by people the amount of tobacco smoke they breathe in gets deposited in the lung paving way for lung cancer. Hence smoking should be completely eradicated.

Recent survey says most of the youngsters became victims of smoking. When asked a youngster about this, he said he started to smoke just to enjoy the taste and get pleasure out of it and added that he could not give up the habit as he had got addicted to it completely. When an individual intakes smoke for the first time, the brain fixes up a tolerance level for the amount of smoke he intakes. When the person smokes again he has to cross the tolerance level of brain and hence he has to smoke more than before to get the same level of pleasure. Hence the number of cigarettes needed by a person increases steadily and ultimately he becomes slave to it. It is tough for a person to recover from this habit when he has become addicted to it. Doing something unpleasant is bitterly now but it brings goodness in the future. Giving up the cigarette smoking habit prevents a person from lung cancer. When smokers quit smoking, the affected lung tends to repair and there is only less probability to get cancer. Thus giving up the habit at any stage of smoking is really useful.

Cancer is a disease that occurs due to the abnormal cell growth that goes beyond control. The abnormal cells are unhealthy ones and are called as cancer cells. Healthy cells of the lungs are invaded and destroyed by cancer cells. Lung cancer usually occurs in either one or both the lungs of the human or it originates in one lung and gets spread to the other. The major contributor to lung cancer is cigarette. People, who are very much interested in gaining temporary pleasure by smoking, are unaware of the fact that their life span is reduced and ultimately losing their permanent happiness. In general, lungs contract when a person exhales and expand when he inhales. When a person smokes, he inhales smoke which contains tobacco which gets deposited in lungs as tar. When a person exhales, the deposits of tar prevent the lungs to contract. This leads to break down of cells in the lungs. Across the world, the report of most of the doctors about their lung cancer patients says that most of the patients are smokers. As the proverb rightly says, ‘look before you leap’, the smokers should have awareness about the ill-effects of smoking.
