Avatar m tn Then about a week and a hlaf later my tongue swelled up in the middle of the night. The doctor said it may be hookah smoke. I have smoked hookah on and off for about 2 years and never had any problems before now. I work in a hookah bar. since the last reaction i havent smoked hookah but have been handling it and being around it being smoked. Is it possible that it still is the hookah im allergic too? Or could it be some sort of throat virus that the hookah agrivated that gave me the reaction?
Avatar f tn Yes. Hookah is actually worse for you and the baby than cigarettes because it is so concentrated and strong. I would avoid it if I were you, and let your baby grow in a healthy environment.
Avatar f tn does smoking hookah for more than 2 hours bad for your health? last night was my first time to smoke a hookah. and now im experiencing slight chest pains... is this related to my smoking of the hookah? or am i just feeling" this.?? im so nervous. i was unaware that it is twice dangerous than a pack of cigar. help please!
Avatar n tn s just a big water pipe and you have to have something to smoke to have it do anything. The big problem with hookah bars and hookah parties is that people just suck on it all night, and take in an enormous amount of nicotine, much more than smoking a cigarette. But in your case, I assume you don't intend to smoke it again.
Avatar m tn You have to have the tobacco in the hookah in order to smoke from it. Hookahs are formly known as pipes for tobacco and other uses(i'm sure your fimilar with it) lol They pretty much do have the same effect as cigarettes but smoking from a hookah is much harsher!! If you've smoked from them before then you know what i mean--if not, give it a whirl...never hurts to try something new!

Avatar n tn s place a couple of weeks ago smoking hookah and without really thinking about it, noticed someone licking a tiny cut on his finger and then smoking out of the device along with the rest of us. I shrugged it off in the moment but now I'm doubting my judgment.
Avatar n tn My doctor thought this must be an allergic reaction to the hookah but I have smoked before, and as I said have used those flavors previously. Would the length of smoking cause this? I need to know what I am actually allergic to.
Avatar f tn I went to the hookah bar on saturday for 3 hours. Then finding out on mondAy i am pregnant.
Avatar f tn I'm seriously having the same problem with my boyfriend. but only the smoking part. he smokes weed and I honestly can not stand it. the fact that it's illegal and he has it I'm his truck sometimes pisses me off so much. I've tried talking to him about it and lead to this HUGE argument between us. He still does it knowing I hate it. it wasn't really a problem before I got pregnant but now that I am I really want him to stop. for our baby. He just doesn't understand that!
Avatar n tn I was thinking, that it could just be a canker sore from poor health and the smoking/drinking, but what are the odds, that the canker sore is in the same place, in where I put the hookah pipe in my mouth. Not sure what to think.

Avatar f tn Hi ladies I have a question, me and my hubby used to smoke hookah alot but ever since I found I was pregnant I obviously stopped, I am 34wks pregnant and my hubby recently started Smoking hookah again but the VAPORIZOR one, the one that you smoke out the pen.
2207301 tn?1340990867 Actually hookah is worse than cigges because you are smokin more than just tobacco your smoking ashes and to your inhaling nothing but the hookah when smoking a cigg you do blow it back out,. If anhaled ciggs deaply it causes a burning which hookah does not and it stays in your lungs. Which also is connected with your babys oxygen. But i kno what you mean one hit wont harm much for just a taste.
Avatar f tn I need yals input on something. one girl I follow on instagram is pregnant and some of her pictures include her smoking hookah.

I'm against it. so no offence to anyone who thinks it's okay.
Avatar n tn Nargila, as I know it, is a "Hookah" as sarah mentioned so I am confused as to what it is she is smoking. What I can suggest is that you speak with her and ask her directly what is going on. Maybe she will get honest with you. I hope she does.
4528412 tn?1357069833 it really upset the baby s belly and he was never really comfortable. he just cried all the time...once she stopped and his body adjusted to the formula (without the nicotine in his bottles) he is much better!
Avatar f tn Hi, yesterday I was smoking hookah in a restaurant, it’s always busy I was wating for half an hour to get a table, Before I smoke, the waiter brought the hookah and the pipe and the connector to the table, the pipe and the connector touched the table for around 2 minutes and then he puts the connector to the hookah and I start smoking, I am worried that’s the table is not clean and might have blood and touched the connector and I inhale the smoke from the connector with blood, it’s risky?
Avatar f tn And to be honest had no intention of smoking the hookah because the smell alone was making me sick. I was just curious.
Avatar m tn Sounds like you could have caught some sort of pulmonary infection. The overabundant phlegm is the result of your body trying to get rid of the irritants from the tobacco and possibly from whatever foreign bodies that has introduced into your body. Ask your friend if they are experiencing the same thing before. Also, i would recommend collecting a sputum sample and give it to your doctor for further examination.
Avatar n tn however sheesh is usually made up of nectars and juices and the smoke is produced by the hot coals burning the juice off of the tobacco sooo i mean no not really its not necessarily bad to smell it although i may avoid a hot boxed room bc some does contain nicotine plus it'll make you light headed.
Avatar m tn Dear Super, I have a relative who is a two-pack-a-day smoker, had some of his colon taken out, and he had to quit smoking for a couple weeks after his operation, so the wound would heal. It's just like the other poster said, smoking will reduce the oxygen that flows around in your blood, and you need that O2 to heal up right, otherwise you'll have bleeding and infection and what not.
Avatar f tn okay girls so before I got pregnant I would smoke the pin hookah the ones that is 500-800 puffs then you thorw away and when I found out I was pregnant I stopped oviously but now I'm wondering can I smoke them while breastfeeding? Or do I have to wait I know this is a question for my doctor I don't see him till Friday and I'm just curious.
