As the arteries narrow, blood clots begin to form.<br \/>\nSmoking accelerates the narrowing of blood vessels: it starts earlier and the chances of clots increase two to four times.<br \/>\nThe disease can take many forms depending on the blood vessels in which it develops, but all forms are more common in smokers.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Coronary artery thrombosis: A clot forms in the arteries that carry blood to the heart. As a consequence, a heart attack may occur. Coronary artery thrombosis develops 10 years earlier in smokers than in non-smokers.<\/li>\n<li>A blood clot in the blood vessels of the brain causes a stroke, paralysis.<\/li>\n<li>If the kidneys are affected, blood pressure rises or kidney failure develops.<\/li>\n<li>Leg vein thrombosis can cause gangrene and amputation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>CANCER<\/h3>\n<p>Smokers are more likely to develop lung, throat and oral cancer than non-smokers.<br \/>\nThe link between smoking and lung cancer is obvious: ninety percent of lung cancers are caused by smoking.<br \/>\nOnly 0.5 percent of people who have never smoked can develop lung cancer.<br \/>\nOne in ten moderate smokers and one in five heavy smokers will die from lung cancer.<br \/>\nThe more hookahs are smoked per day, the more years you smoke, the younger you start smoking, the more smoke you absorb, the higher your risk of lung cancer.<br \/>\nIf you smoke, the risk of developing oral cancer is four times higher than for non-smokers. Cancer can start anywhere in the mouth, usually under the tongue or on the lips.<\/p>\n<p>Other types of cancer that are more common in smokers are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>bladder cancer<\/li>\n<li>esophageal cancer<\/li>\n<li>kidney cancer<\/li>\n<li>pancreatic cancer<\/li>\n<li>Cervical Cancer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>LOPL<\/h3>\n<p>Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the common name for a group of symptoms that block air from entering the lungs and make it harder to breathe.<br \/>\nFor example, shortness of breath due to alveolar damage or chronic bronchitis is a prolonged cough with sputum.<br \/>\nSmoking is a major cause of COPD.<br \/>\nAlveolar lesions were found during post-mortem necrosis in 94 percent of those who smoked 3-4 hookahs a day, while 90 percent of non-smokers had no or almost no such lesions.<br \/>\nCOPD usually begins between the ages of 35 and 45, when lung function begins to decline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other types of damage to the body caused by smoking<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Smoking raises blood pressure, leading to hypertension, a risk factor for heart attack.<\/li>\n<li>Couples who smoke are more likely to have fertility problems compared to non-smokers.<\/li>\n<li>Smoking worsens the condition of people with asthma and weakens the effects of anti-asthmatic drugs.<\/li>\n<li>The blood vessels in the eye are sensitive and can be damaged by smoking, causing redness of the whites of the eyes and the onset of itching.<\/li>\n<li>Many smokers are twice as likely to lose vision due to macular degeneration.<\/li>\n<li>There is an increased risk of cataracts.<\/li>\n<li>Smokers spend 25 percent more days on incapacity for work than non-smokers.<\/li>\n<li>Smoking causes yellowing of the teeth and gums.<\/li>\n<li>Smoking increases the risk of paradantosis, which can cause swelling of the gums, bad breath and falling teeth.<\/li>\n<li>Smoking causes a sour taste in the mouth and can lead to ulcers.<\/li>\n<li>Smoking affects the appearance: paler skin, more wrinkles. This is because smoking impairs blood circulation to the skin and lowers vitamin A levels.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>SMOKING AND IMPOTENCE<\/h3>\n<p>For men aged 30 to 40, smoking increases the risk of erectile dysfunction by 50 percent.<br \/>\nAn erection occurs when blood flows into the penis, which means that the blood vessels must be in good condition.<br \/>\nSmoking damages blood vessels and affects their degeneration: nicotine narrows the arteries that go into the penis, reducing blood flow and blood pressure in the penis.<br \/>\nThe narrowing effect on the blood vessels gets stronger over time, so if you don\u2019t have problems now, they can occur later.<br \/>\nErectile dysfunction in smokers should be an early warning sign that hookah has already done harm to the body and affected blood vessels, including those that supply the heart.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAMAGE OF SMOKING TO THE HUMAN ORGANISM Although information about the harm of smoking to the body is neither classified nor difficult to access, people still do not stop smoking.
