Asbestosis is a harmful lung condition that develops in people who have inhaled large amounts of asbestos dust from industrial materials over the years. When someone inhales the dust, the microscopic asbestos fibres settle in the lungs, where they may cause scars and make breathing increasingly difficult.
One of the unusual things about asbestosis is the long "lag-time" between asbestos exposure and the resulting illness - a year of exposure in youth may not cause symptoms until 30 years later.
