A member asked:

Will i acquire a nicotine addiction if i smoke cigarillos without inhaling?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Nicotine is absorbed through the skin and mucosal lining of the nose and mouth or in the lungs (through inhalation). The nicotine in your cigarillos is absorbed more slowly through the mucosal membranes of your mouth. Smoking accounts for 90% of lung cancer cases in the U.S., and about 38, 000 deaths per year can be attributed to secondhand smoke.
