What Franklin should know about Asbestos

What does Asbestos look like?

Asbestos looks like many things. It is a group of fibrous minerals that were mined and widely used in a variety of products, especially before the mid-1980s.

What are the Health Risks of Asbestos Exposure in Tennessee?

Asbestos materials in their “normal installed state” are ok, but when the materials are disturbed to a point of becoming pulverized, microscopic asbestos fibers can be released and will likely go airborne. Asbestos remediation must be performed to make the space safe.

Once airborne, you can breathe them in where they can get lodged in your lungs. Breathing in asbestos can cause lung damage, mesothelioma, and cancer.

The X factor is the human body. There is no specific exposure length or level that can be used as a baseline for everyone.  Every person’s body responds to asbestos, like any other substance, uniquely.  Therefore, while exposure to asbestos can cause any number of symptoms, it is best to consult your physician if you suspect you have been exposed.
