Nuclear energy powers the world—but behind the progress lies a serious occupational risk. Nuclear energy workers are often exposed to radioactive materials like radon gas and uranium dust, which can lead to chronic lung diseases such as:
- Radiation Pneumonitis
- Lung Fibrosis
- Lung Cancer
Symptoms to watch for include persistent coughing, chest pain, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Early diagnosis is crucial.
Treatment options range from medications and oxygen therapy to pulmonary rehab and cancer treatment, depending on severity.
Prevention is key—with proper protective gear, radiation monitoring, and regular health screenings, many of these conditions can be avoided.
At White Card Pharmacy, we support energy workers through referrals, specialized treatment, and education on occupational lung disease.
