Many studies now show that this secondhand smoke can have harmful effects on nonsmokers and even cause them to develop diseases such as lung cancer.
Exposure to secondhand smoke increases the risk of lower respiratory tract infections such as bronchitis and pneumonia.

Secondhand smoke is also known as involuntary smoking or passive smoking because nonsmokers can inhale the same chemicals, toxins and carcinogens in tobacco smoke inhaled by active smokers.
Secondhand smoke (also known as environmental tobacco smoke) is the toxic waste produced by a lit tobacco product (cigarette, cigar or pipe) and from smoke exhaled by the smoker.
Secondhand Smoke Is Common at Home Secondhand smoke is the smoke in the air, which comes from the burning cigarette, pipe, or cigar and the smoke exhaled from the smokers’ lungs.
