View In AppLung cancer is a prevalent disease affecting many people worldwide. In this video, we explore whether wearing a face mask can be effective in preventing lung cancer. While face masks are widely known for their role in preventing respiratory infections and reducing exposure to pollutants, their direct impact on lung cancer prevention is less clear. Masks can help filter out harmful particles and reduce inhalation of carcinogens, potentially lowering the risk of lung damage that could contribute to cancer. However, there is no definitive evidence that masks alone can prevent lung cancer. Comprehensive prevention strategies, including avoiding smoking, reducing exposure to environmental toxins, and regular medical check-ups, are crucial in reducing lung cancer risk. This video provides insights into how masks might play a role in overall lung health.
