Is it possible that i can get lung cancer at the age of 25?

  • Ive been smoking for 5 years ,10 cigarettes or less and day. I went to a doctor for check up cause I felt a little bit of shortness of breath,back and arm pain my left lungs i think its not working when i breath and i cant yawned completely just half felt like im choking, I have a previous asthma when i was kid and stop at the age of 11. My Doctor gave me a blood examination chest x-ray and ECG , but its all normal my doctor prescribed me a Pro Air Inhalation but i feel the same . Now Im so depressed that what if chest x-ray couldn't detect my lung problems. I feel wet on my left lungs ,cant yawned before I sleep. Please help me if this is a sign and symptoms of lung cancer, it drives me crazy

  • Answer:

    This is not lung cancer. Only 3% of lung cancers are found under age 45. The majority of lung cancers occur after the age of 65. They are usually the product of decades of smoking. I know. I have seen hundreds of patients with lung cancers. Quit smoking - - if you can. It is a tough addiction to quit.

Definitely. You can get lung cancer when you're fifteen. Heck, you can get lung cancer when you're five. That's why people always say not to smoke around kids. And if you had lung cancer, the x-ray would've picked it up, so it's probably not that. It still sounds pretty serious and you should still stop smoking.

You do not have lung cancer though one can get it at the age of 25. You do have classical asthamatic bronchitis.
