Hello,i am a 17 year smoker.i have now not smoked for 3day now because i am on antibiotics.tge reason is i got an bad cold and sinus infection so the doctor gave me antibiotics but i feel great today would it be safe to smoke cigarrettes today?

It is never "safe" to smoke cigarettes. The nicotine from the first puff reduces blood flow in your capillaries and diminishes the healing properties contained in normal blood flow. If your a smoker, do what you want, but don't expect a health authority to tell you it is safe. That myth has been exposed for decades.
