There is no scientific proof to methods available online to detox your lungs. Fortunately, Lungs are good at cleaning and repairing themselves unless there was any chronic damage done. You may follow some steps to keep the lungs healthy such as Quit smoking, avoid second-hand smoke, steer clear of pollution indoors & outside (Wear mask, use air purifiers), prevent lung infections (Hand washing, maintain distance from sick people, get flu/pneumonia vaccines), include anti oxidants in diet and do breathing exercises or any physical activity on regular basis.

I've been using hand sanitizer a lot lately, and I'm a bit worried about the smell. Can just inhaling the smell of hand sanitizer be bad for your lungs, or could it cause any serious health issues over time?
just avoid it

I'm really worried about my mom who's been on pulmonary tb meds for six months now. They didn't find any cavities, just some infections initially, and she's feeling better, but I came across a few blogs that said these meds might actually harm the lungs and could lead to more infections down the line. Is that something we should be worried about? What should we do to prevent any long-term issues? Would love some advice.
