Lung cancer susceptibility and Homeopathy

Lung cancer is a deadly form of cancer. It usually affects the people after 45 years of age. There are two main types of lung cancer. Most common type is known as non-small cell lung cancer. It occurs in 85% to 90% of the cases and is usually less aggressive and slow-spreading. Less common type is known as small-cell lung cancer. It occurs in 10% to 15% of the cases but is highly aggressive and fast-spreading. Smoking is the main cause of lung cancer. The disease spreads from the affected lung to liver, bone, brain and the other lung through metastasis. Prognosis depends on the stage of the disease, therapies taken and vitality of the patient. Homeopathy medicines treat and manage lung cancer cases whether small cell or non-small cell type. Homeopathic constitutions which are susceptible to develop lung cancer include Nux vomica, Sulphur and Arsenicum album.
