Recent observations have revealed an alarming increase in lung-related health issues, notably among teenagers presenting with black spots on their lungs—patterns once associated primarily with smokers but now seen in youth with no smoke exposure.

The primary sources of pollution in countries like India include crop burning, garbage incineration, vehicular emissions, and industrial smoke, all releasing toxic pollutants into the atmosphere. As experts emphasize, the detrimental effects of these pollutants are not limited to immediate health issues but also contribute to long-term lung damage.
