Are You Concerned About Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can be present in buildings, including offices or houses. If your structure has a basement and is in high radon areas you likely have radon at elevated levels in the living space. It is impossible to know if you are exposed to the gas without testing because it is colorless and doesn't have any odor or taste.
Maybe you're not aware of it, but the Upstate region has high concentration of this gas due to the prevalence of granite bedrocks and shale in the region. Exposure to radon can cause health problems, whose severity and risk depends on the level of exposure and for how long you've been exposed to the gas. Some studies even showed that it might be one of the main causes of lung cancer.
Some of the health problems associated with exposure to radon gas include:
- Eye, nose or throat irritation
- Lung Cancer
- Damages to the Central Nervous System
- Possible damages to the liver
- Increased risk of disease linked with respiration, such as asthma or allergies
- Headaches
- Fatigue, nausea or dizziness
