What Are the Symptoms of Mesothelioma?
It can take years for the symptoms of mesothelioma to appear. Even if you haven’t been near asbestos in decades, your risk for the disease hasn’t declined since your last exposure. In fact, it can take as long as 50 years for the symptoms of mesothelioma to show.
If you show the following symptoms, you may want to talk to your doctor about mesothelioma:
- Coughing
- Chest pain
- Shortness of breath
- Nausea
- Abdominal pain
- Weight loss
These symptoms may be signs of other health conditions and are worth talking to your doctor about regardless. However, any degree of asbestos exposure makes mesothelioma a possibility. People over the age of 65 experience a higher risk of mesothelioma, but people of all ages can be affected.
Which Occupations Pose a High Risk?
For years, asbestos was used in everything from insulation to plastics. Even though the asbestos industry was aware of the dangers, they continued to put workers and families at risk. Exposure to asbestos is dangerous in any amount, but people who are consistently exposed have a higher risk for mesothelioma.
These are just a few of the highest-risk occupations:
- Construction workers
- Industrial workers
- Firefighters
- Shipbuilders
- Miners
- Electricians
- Painters
- Mechanics
There are many more jobs that put workers at risk for asbestos exposure. No matter where you’ve worked, certainly mesothelioma was not in the job description.
