Is There Any Possibility That I May Have Contracted Cancer From The Use Of A Repulsive Humidifier?
Hi my name is Mike--I was just diagnosed with tonsil cancer-I have been using a humidifier that has been in my bedroom for probably !0 yrs without canging the filter----it is covered with mold etc-Is there any possibility that I may have contracted cancer from the use of the repulsive humidifier?
No, there is no such data to support tonsillar cancer causation secondary to use of mould infested filter in humidifier. Tonsil cancer association is more with cigarette smoking and alcohol use.
