[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, this can cause serious lung disease like COPD (chronic obstructive Pulmonary disease) or lung cancer. Burning sensation is lungs is suggestive of inflammation. And cigarette smoke is the most common factor for this. If you continue smoking, this will definitely injure your lungs and can cause COPD or lung cancer in the future. So better to quit smoking as soon as possible because this not good habit. Also consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to detect any decrement in lung functions. So quit smoking immediately, this will help you a lot. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
