Abstract

An occupational lung illness called byssinosis is seen in employees who are exposed to the dust from cotton, flax, and hemp. In high-income nations, byssinosis' severity and scope are well known, and control measures have been put in place to thwart the disease. In India, there is inconsistent evidence regarding the disease's estimated toll, which is followed by insufficient byssinosis prevention and management.
