Can Inhaling Large Amounts Of Smoke Cause Crack In Rib?
I have been smoking weed for a little while now and all of a sudden i have woken up with sever pain right under my right pectoral. It feels as if my top rib is puncturing my lung. I can t take deep breaths, and it feels hard to breathe in general at times. I have seen a doctor and i have been told that it is probably a cracked or broken rib. Could inhaling large amounts of smoke at a time cause this? can i please have a free reply? this is my health at stake!
