Mesothelioma Attorney in Hilton Head

Mesothelioma, a cancer caused by inhaling asbestos fibers, is an aggressive and deadly illness. In many cases, symptoms don’t occur until years after the initial point of exposure. Mesothelioma often affects the lungs or abdomen, and can yield different symptoms including:

• Chest pain, shortness of breath, painful cough
• Unexplained weight loss
• Unusual lumps of tissue around the chest

Symptoms of mesothelioma in the abdomen include:

• Abdominal pain/swelling
• Nausea
• Unexplained weight loss

Mesothelioma is especially prevalent in older individuals, but the disease can affect anyone regardless of age. If you notice these symptoms, contact a medical specialist.

Asbestos collects in the body starting from the initial exposure. Workers who were exposed over a long period of time generally carry the highest risk of developing mesothelioma. The industries where this is especially prevalent include but are not limited to:

• Firefighting
• Construction
• Mining
• Shipbuilding
• Military services
