The needles are not placed that deep into the body. I think it would be very difficult to get a punctured lung from acupuncture. The only way would be if the doctor is not thoroughly trained.

umm no i don't think so!

First of all, the therapist would have to push really hard to puncture it..and u would know it.

Second of all, the needles are so thin that they probably cant penetrate the skin.

And third of all, who's your therapist?
