Asbestos and MesotheliomaWritten by MesotheliomaFirms.com
Asbestos is a dangerous and potentially deadly substance that was once widely used in a range of items, from ceiling and wall tiles to insulation and auto brakes. In past, most people outside of industry were totally unaware of dangers relating to asbestos. However, over recent years dangers and deadly effects of asbestos have become all too apparent, with more and more cases of most deadly of these effects - mesothelioma - coming to light every day. Mesothelioma is a malignant cancer that can start in cavities of lungs, heart, or abdomen. This cancer is direct result of exposure to disturbed asbestos, where fibers become airborne. These airborne asbestos fibers can then be easily ingested or breathed in by those in vicinity that are not wearing adequate protection. Once asbestos fibers have lodged themselves within various parts of body, they cannot be destroyed by cells of immune system, which are known as macrophages. Instead, asbestos fibers lead to scar tissue within body, and this is what can lead to mesothelioma and other asbestos related injuries. People that have contracted mesothelioma through asbestos exposure do not realize that anything is wrong for years. The typical latency period for this cancer is around twenty to forty years, which means that those affected may not find out for three or four decades following exposure. Further delays can be experienced because of symptoms of mesothelioma, which are very non-specific in nature - this means that they could easily be attributed to other more common ailments. This often leads to a delay in diagnosis, causing further delays when it comes to treatment of any sort.
