The effects of smoking cigarettes can range from short-term health impacts, such as coughing, to long-term effects, such as an increased risk of developing cancer and heart disease. Smoking can also worsen existing conditions, such as asthma and bronchitis, and cause damage to your respiratory system. It can also damage other organs in your body, such as your pancreas, kidneys, and liver. In addition, smoking can lead to dental problems and increase the risk of stroke and other circulatory problems, such as coronary artery disease.
