A member asked:
I suffer from sinusitis since 2010 and i am under the care of an ent but my dad smokes everyday and almost all the time next to me! what can i do?

Have him: talk to your ENT with you. Maybe in person, your doctor can convince him not only how colossally bad smoking is, but how it can worsen your chronic condition. The only other option is to remove yourself from the environment as much as possible. Go for a walk whenever he smokes. Hope this helps!
