Is the chance of lung cancer being inherited high?

Lung cancer: Reports show that if a person has a close relative with lung cancer and smokes, his risk of developing lung cancer is 14 times higher than that of the general population. Japanese scholars have shown that 35.8% of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung have a family history, and 58.3% of female patients with alveolar cell carcinoma have a family history.

Early prevention can prevent hereditary cancer. If you know that there is a genetic history of a certain cancer in your family, you should take early prevention. First of all, you should take good care of yourself, change your bad eating habits, eat less fried, smoked and grilled food, quit smoking and limit alcohol, and eat more anti-cancer foods, such as tomatoes, sweet potatoes, milk, etc.

Secondly, we should develop good living habits, have regular work and rest schedules, not stay up late, stay away from decoration pollution; strengthen physical exercise to enhance resistance; and maintain a good attitude and look at cancer correctly. In addition, we should have regular physical examinations and screenings every year. Once early signs of cancer are found, timely treatment should be given to control the disease.
