Kitchen fumes are a prevalent yet overlooked health hazard. A case study revealed a woman in her 40s experiencing shortness of breath, initially attributed to her weight, but upon medical examination, it was discovered that her lungs had turned white, with only 40% of normal function remaining. The cause was traced back to her work environment and cooking habits, resulting in irreversible lung fibrosis. Surgeon Chen Rong highlighted the importance of wearing masks in polluted environments and kitchens to prevent such health risks.
