A member asked:

I have asthma and almost every day i have thick mucus so i'm worried will it lead to lung cancer in future? even though my pft results are not bad

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Do not worry: Asthma is not a predisposing factor for lung cancer. Do seek treatment for asthma as it has its own mortality risk without causing cancer.
