This is a disease caused by inhaling charcoal dust in mines, and most of charcoal miners have suffered from it at some point of their lives.

Singlet oxygen treatment changes the lives of occupational respiratory diseases patients
The first and most important step one should take in this case is of course avoiding the dangerous work environment as much as possible. As long as the attending doctor diagnoses that the disease is sourced by exposure to a harmful substance at work, one must stay away from its dangerous workplace in any manner possible. However, in order to repair the existing damages and achieve optimal pulmonary recovery, avoiding the workplace itself might not be sufficient and a restorative treatment involvement will be necessary for a complete recovery. The singlet oxygen treatment by ZMedicAir has been proven as very efficient in the treatment and recovery from respiratory diseases in general and respiratory diseases caused by the workplace, in particular.
