Lung Cancer: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment at Michoes Medical Centre

Lung cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the lungs and can spread to other parts of the body. It’s one of the most preventable types of cancer, and quitting smoking can significantly reduce the risk of developing it.

The two main types of lung cancer are non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer. Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of NSCLC, making up 40% of lung cancer cases. It mainly affects people who smoke or have a history of smoking.

Squamous cell carcinoma usually starts in the lung’s largest branches and accounts for 30% of lung cancers. It’s more common in men and people who smoke. Treatment depends on what type of lung cancer you have and how advanced it is, often involving surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy.

At Michoes Medical Centre, we offer a range of services to help you manage your lung cancer symptoms and treatment. Our team of experienced doctors and specialists work closely with you to ensure that you receive the best possible care.

Our state-of-the-art facilities are equipped with the latest technology, including low-dose CT scanners, which can help detect lung cancer early on. We also offer pain management services to ensure that you’re comfortable throughout your treatment.
