It is not a good idea to smoke cigarettes or marijuana while you are recovering from surgery as this could affect your healing ability. Smoking also adversely affects your health in general but especially puts you at risk for lung side effects like asthma, COPD (emphysema/chronic bronchitis), lung cancer, etc. These diseases can ultimately shorten your life expectancy. Good luck!
