Popcorn lung: how vaping could scar your lungs for life [The Conversation]

What’s up, everybody! It’s Thursday, May 8th, 2025. Today is Thursday, that means Doctors/Nurses/EMTs/Firefighters day, therefore please heed my warning from 05-08-2025: Popcorn lung: a dangerous irreversible thing that can happen to your teenager when they have been vaping for the past couple of years. Read about it, research it, HELP THEM QUIT IMMEDIATELY. For those of you who have younger teenagers, do NOT believe that they’re always your little angel and wouldn’t do this behavior. Sometimes, hanging out with the wrong clique, and they’re vaping. For parents who are unfamiliar, it’s a little device that looks like a USB stick. By all means, if your children/teens are underage, search their rooms, search their bags, search their pockets. Dying over vaping is SIMPLY NOT WORTH IT. Obviously, as a parent, you must lead by example. If you smoke cigarettes, or if if you smoke weed at Coachella, your children/teens will follow suit as well. The More You Know.

Until Next Time!
