A mum was recently warned about the dangers of bronchiolitis obliterans, otherwise known as ‘popcorn lung’, after her daughter was rushed to hospital struggling to breathe.
The mum got a call from her 17-year-old daughter, who could barely speak over the phone, trying to tell her that she couldn’t breathe properly.
It turned out she’d been secretly vaping for the past three years and doctors diagnosed her with ‘popcorn lung’, identifying it as the cause behind the teenager’s breathing problems.
It’s a condition which is affecting a number of vapers, and the condition can be fatal in the most serious of circumstances.
