What Secondhand Smoking Can Do

Submitted by grays22 on Tue 01/05/2010 - 07:44
I know it is very hard for a smoker to believe that they are harming other people with their smoking, but it is a very true think. Secondhand smoke can sometimes be just as bad, if not worse, for those who are around. There are actually a lot of people who have allergic reactions to cigarette smoke and these reactions are usually pretty severe.

The cigarette smoke can cause irritation in other peoples eyes, throats, and mouths. Some people who are exposed to secondhand smoking have trouble with their breathing that can be classified as “asthma”. As well all know, asthma is a very serious condition and cigarette does not play a good role in this equation. For some people, being exposed to secondhand cigarette smoke makes them feel like they are running through a burning building. Yes it can get that bad for others. So be aware of others around if you absolutely have to smoke.
