Answer 1

Yawning is not related to lung cancer.  It can be caused by stress and low oxygen in your blood, among other things.  You could be anemic    (common in young menstruating women).  Do you feel more tired than usual?  Are you getting enough sleep?

Are you on any medication for your OCD?  

Touch base with your doctor, and mention everything you have told us.  That's the best place to start.

Also, consider seeing a counsellor about your OCD and hypochondriasis.  A counsellor can help you develop some healthy coping strategies.  

There are some very good cognitive behavioural therapy workbooks available to work through too.  Your therapist can recommend some, or check amazonbooks.com.  Mind Over Matter is a good one.  I'll give you a link.

Try to get outside every day and get some fresh air and exercise.

You will get better.  Best wishes.

Answer 2

Yawning is something we do to keep our brains alert. This is a normal bodily function. If you have an OCD then you need to see if you haven't already a doctor, they might be able to give you some behavioural therapy. Good luck with it.

Answer 3

yawning is what we do when your brian is tired. when you're groggy, or sleepy, you yawn. or when your brain doesn't get enough oxygen, like after running, you yawn. i don't of any diseases, though.  

Answer 4

Yawning isn't really a bad thing, although no one really knows why we actually yawn. This website shows the possible theories of why we yawn, and none of them involve any sort of diseases or anything. I've never heard of anyone getting anything from yawning and I'm positive you won't get lung cancer.

Answer 5

I would talk to.

But I don't think yawning a lot means you have lung cancer.

I hope you feel better.
