How long after a collapsed lung is it okay to smoke weed. do i have to quit forever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Recurs: A collapsed lung or pneumothorax may recur and having one episode is a risk factor for another. Smoking may increase the risk and to the problem. I would advise quitting completely. Please check with your local lung association and PCP for methods to quit smoking.
