Rock Hill Mesothelioma Attorney
There are a number of diseases that are either caused directly by exposure to asbestos or for which the risk is greatly increased by the toxic mineral. Among the most serious health effects of asbestos exposure are the development of asbestosis, mesothelioma, and lung cancer.
Asbestosis is a disease that results from the progressive scarring of lung tissues as the body tries to expel microscopic asbestos fibers that have lodged themselves in the lining of the lungs after inhalation. Aware that there is a foreign substance present, the body’s immune system attempts to help. Unfortunately, the immune system is not equipped to handle asbestos, and as it continues to repeat the process, the scarring eventually inhibits the victim’s ability to breathe.
Mesothelioma is a particularly vicious form of cancer that can take as long as 50 years to develop, and it may leave only months to live after a diagnosis. It is almost universally tied to asbestos exposure, and the fact that it could have been eliminated by more prudent behavior on the part of manufacturers is tragic.
