Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that as you are living very close to such place you are constantly exposing to fumes and it is dangerous for exposing a prolonged period. There are many effects of fumes which may get trapped in your lung causing various serious changes which is very dangerous in long ago. It also has some malignant potential. Some times it may cause allergy to some of the sensitive individuals. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
