Lung Cancer Can Affect Non-Smokers, Warns Expert

Even if you've never smoked, you can still get lung cancer.

Doctors say that almost 20% of people with lung cancer haven't smoked.

Things like air pollution, breathing in other people's smoke, family history, and exposure to chemicals at work can raise your risk.

If you have a cough that won't go away, feel short of breath, or have chest pain, see a doctor.

You can protect yourself by not smoking, eating healthy foods, staying active, and avoiding polluted air or dangerous chemicals.
