Can smelling nail polish/nail polish remover cause lung cancer or something

Can smelling nail polish/nail polish remover cause lung cancer or something?
I paint my nails a lot and try not to smell it but sometimes I accidentally inhale a lot of it and also nail polish remover. Is it bad?

Not unless you put it right up to your nose and snort the fumes. The truth is most of these polishes and removers now have been made perfectly safe so you can feel free to polish and remove all you want and still not have any ill effects on your health. That's just one reason they came out with acetate free remover. Please don't ever intentionally sniff these though. I'm not too sure why anyone would actually do that, but nothing can be obtained by doing it. Some people thought long ago that it might be a cheap way to find to get high like glue sniffers. Those days are long gone as today's market has only types that you can use for your nails. Good luck and God Bless

It means she is terminal. She has an extremely small chance for survival.She has 3-6 months to live!!!! AT the very most a year!
2 :
Yes any cancer at stage 4 is life threatening. Stage 4 refers to the cancer spreading and at the last stage before it kills you. But some of us are able to fight it and win and others can't but lung cancer is hard to fight. I lost my left lung 2004 and it is not easy but I am a fighter and between the chemo and radiation I know I will fight to the end.
3 :
Yes.
4 :
I have stage 4 lung cancer myself. I'm a 48 year old woman and I was told by my doc I have anywhere from 18 to 24 months. The chemo has worked very well for me but it is still a terminal stage.

While lung cancer can spread to any organ in the body, certain organs -- particularly the adrenal glands, liver, brain, and bone -- are the most common sites for lung-cancer metastasis.
