Default I smoked couple of cigarette packs, do I have lung cancer ? I am 16 ? PLEASE READ DES - 03-27-2009, 09:00 PM

I am having trouble breathing right now my lungs hurt, and I am scared that I might have lung cancer. I started smoking cigarettes 2 weeks ago and I have done 4 packs during those 2 weeks. I didn't inhale alto, just a little bit. Maybe a bit of second hand smoking too because I sniffed some smoke from the uprising smoke of the cigarette. I'm scared, right now I threw away all my packs and swore to never smoke again. DO I HAVE LUNG CANCER ??

No.

But you may have exasperated an asthma problem you didn't know you had.

Very unlikely, but you should stop if you wanna feel better

It is not possible to develop lung cancer in two weeks. Chances are that your lungs are just very irritated and have a great deal of smoke build up. Stop smoking. Try to go out for walks as much as possible and get fresh air. You should be fine.

Course you bloody don't... Some people smoke for 50-60 years and don't get it. Your probably having trouble breathing because your body isn't used to you smoking, second hand smoke is nothing like first hand, you have to be a second hand smoker for long time if you don't have any problems for it to do you harm

There's no way you can have cancer after only two weeks, but I'd suggest visiting a hospital and talking to some patients who are dying from cancer. It is a painful and freakishly horrible way to die, I 'll bet any patient you talk to will tell you they wish they had one more day to live. PLEASE throw those cigarettes away and never smoke a single one!

Good for you for being concerned and aware that your body is trying to
Tell you something. Your lungs are very irritated. The chances of you
Having lung cancer is extremely low but if you keep smoking like you have
Been you will very likely end up with it in the future. So keep those smokes
In the trash were you put them and let your Lu gs heal. They will heal
But you have to stop.

Yes, absolutely can getting you lung cancer because couple of cigarette packs are really bad of you and they really damaging to your lung and you can confirm getting lung cancer because your age are really small to smoke couple of cigarette packs. So avoid it soon and getting better treatment of it and you know about the lung are really damage or not.
