When Can I Start Smoking After Slight Case Of Pneumonia?
Hi welcome to HCM... Smoking is among one of the predisposing factor for pneumonia .... Complete the course of antibiotic and steroid ..... As a doctor I would suggest you not to smoke as your lung damaged from pneumonia ... Atleast until full recovery of clinical symptoms and resolution of consolidation in chest x ray , smoking not done .... Take healthy and balanced diet .... Hope your concern solved... Take care ....
