People do think only smokers are at risk of disease but many don’t know that people who live in surroundings of smokers are also at risk of diseases. Passive smoking is not a matter to be brushed off. Toxic chemicals in tobacco smoke hurts children far more because their bodies are still developing. Children who are subject to smoky environments have great chances of getting “GLUE EAR”, where the ear gets filled up with glue-like fluid instead of air, which may lead to partial deafness.Ingredients like tar, nicotine, carbon monoxide, arsenic and hydrogen cause asthma, chest infections, cough cold and wheezing in children. They have an increase risk of meningitis and reduce resistance to childhood illness. So make sure that one must avoid sitting in smoky environments and people should also avoid smoking in public places.
