Question about lung cancer related to secondhand smoke


Question about lung cancer related to secondhand smoke?
If someone is exposed to secondhand smoke often and doesn't have lung cancer, but starts to show early signs of it, then will it save them if they cut off/reduce their exposure to secondhand smoke before the cancer actually develops? Or is it too late?

lung cancer is pretty rare from shs. But lets say it happened no cutting of hair rele won't make a difference

A doctor can give you treatment to prevent the cancer from growing/spreading out. Make sure you are sure you have it, get diagnosed.
5 :
No exposure to second-hand smoke can result in lung cancer. I have a GF with that issue now. You have access to the Internet, research it. Nothing profitable comes out of hypothetical if-then questions w/o a purpose. Symptom 1st present is usually shortness of breathe but that can be contributed to so many conditions that it alone is not definitive. If you have the power to change your environment to afford any illness, why wait for symptoms to take an action. A prudent person exercises preventive measures because we live in an environment of multiple threat & risks.

There are no early signs of lung cancer. That's why it is so deadly. By the time a person has symptoms, it is generally too far gone for curative treatment. Reduce your exposure now. Don't risk it. No matter how much you might think you realize that cancer sucks, it really sucks far more than that.
