Abstract

Lung cancer is the main cause of malignancy in the world, accounting for up to 13 percent of all diagnose of cancer. Lung cancer is also the main cause of death in one third of male deaths in the world caused by cancer. Health education activities about the Dangers of Smoking Against the Risk of Lung Cancer and Efforts for Early Detection of Lung Cancer in Sialang Sakti Village, Tenayan Raya District. The counseling activity was carried out in Sialang Sakti Village, Tenayan Raya District and its surroundings, where the participants were 50 women who live in Sialang Sakti Village, Tenayan Raya District. Almost all of the counseling participants who took part in this activity had families at home who still smoked or had quit smoking. Participants are also given leaflets that can be read by all family members at home. After the counseling, it is hoped that the participants can invite their families who smoke or have been exposed to cigarette smoke to have themselves checked as an effort to early detection of lung cancer. By doing a community service event in Sialang Sakti Village, Tenayan Raya District, it is hoped that it can provide useful knowledge for the community, especially the dangers of smoking against the risk of lung cancer and efforts to early detection of lung cancer.
