Does Smoking Cause Lung Cancer If I Smoke Only Once A Day Or Twice?

Im smoking weed, and I went to the doctors in January of 2012, and I was a heavy smoker. I went for anxiety and small chest pain. My X-Ray came back with nothing wrong, and my blood work was normal. Does Smoking cause lung cancer if I m smoking only once a day or twice?

Hi

Yes smoking will cause lung cancer.
I would advise you to do a CT scan of chest.
If any space occupying lesion is found then biopsy has to be done to rule out malignancy.
