Lung Cancer: is a cancer that ignites in the lungs and most often exist in people who smoke. Two major types of lung cancer are non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer. The roots of lung cancer include smoking, secondhand smoke, exposure to certain toxins, and family history. The treatments vary but may include surgery, chemotherapy, targeted drug therapy, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy.
