I need to help dad. he smokes cigars?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get him to see Dr..: Lifely the best way to handle this is to show your dad medical info. From the web, or hospital, etc., and then have him see a doctor to confirm the info. About this to show him that there are serious long term consequences of cigar smoking, like heart disease and cancer. Let the doctor show him samples of what can happen and give him counseling. He can also get examined to see his status.
