Are you a second-hand smoker?

Second-hand smoking is becoming a cause of great concern world over. More than 600,000 deaths occur worldwide due to second-hand smoking each year.

What is second hand smoking?

Also known as passive smoking, it is the inhalation of smoke by persons other than the intended active smoker. Children are most vulnerable to its ill-effects and often develop respiratory disorders by simply inhaling the smoke in their environment.

What can you do?

The solution is simple. Stay away. Hanging out with a friend who smokes in your presence is equivalent to smoking a cigarette yourself. Smoke rooms are particularly hazardous due to the concentrated tobacco in the air. Keep a safe distance from such enclosed spaces as they can immediate cause a congestion in your chest resulting in cough and irritation. Quit smoking if you are a parent as you are putting your child at risk. Continuous passive smoking is known to cause lung cancer so be aware and careful. See a doctor if your condition persists.
