Introduction

Tobacco consumption and Smoking has been linked to diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis, cancer, heart disease, stroke, and lung diseases. Smoking also makes it more likely to get tuberculosis, some eye diseases, and problems with the immune system like rheumatoid arthritis.

Abnormal cells can spread out of control and invade other tissues, leading to cancer. Cancer cells can spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymphatic systems, which help the body get rid of toxins. There are many different types of cancer. Stroke, heart disease, and cancer Smoking during pregnancy and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are all forms of cancer. Nobody Gains!

The most common kind of heart disease in the United States is coronary artery disease, which refers to the narrowing of the blood vessels that carry blood to the heart.

The term “chronic obstructive pulmonary disease” (COPD) refers to a group of conditions that result in breathing-related issues and airflow obstructions. Heart attack: When the blood which is flowing to the heart gets blocked due to the muscle damage and thereby is not able to pump enough blood this results in heart failure which is damaged or dies; heart failure: when the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to support other organs; arrhythmia: when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or irregularly; stroke:

when the blood supply to the brain becomes blocked COPD has emphysema as a component; chronic bronchitis; asthma, and occasionally COPD itself. The airways, which are the tubes that take air into and out of your lungs, lose their ability to stretch and shrink back in COPD. As a result, less air passes through the airways.

The walls of many of the air sacs have been destroyed.

The walls of the airway thicken and become swollen and irritated.

The increased production of mucus in the airways has the potential to obstruct airflow.

Blue or grey lips and/or fingernails (a sign of low oxygen levels in your blood) Trouble with mental alertness A very fast heartbeat Swelling in the feet and ankles Weight loss Smoking mothers are more likely to give birth prematurely. These symptoms may appear as the disease progresses. Low birth weight occurs in one in five babies born to mothers who smoked during pregnancy. Preterm birth is a major factor in infant mortality, disability, and disease. Pregnant women who are exposed to second-hand smoke have a greater risk of giving birth to babies with lower birth weights.

The lungs of babies whose mothers smoke during pregnancy or who are exposed to secondhand smoke after birth are weaker than those of other babies, increasing the likelihood of numerous health issues. Babies whose mothers smoke while they are pregnant and those who are exposed to secondhand smoke after birth are more likely than those whose mothers do not smoke to die from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The risk of SIDS death for babies whose mothers smoke is approximately three times higher.

Conclusion

System of the integumentary system The integumentary system is made up of a person’s skin, hair, and nails.

Tobacco use can have an effect on a person’s skin and hair. Smokers may have prematurely wrinkled and aged skin. The following are some of the long-term effects of smoking, as stated by the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology:

Sagging skin can be identified by sagging eyes, deeper facial wrinkles, dry skin furrows, and a sagging jawline. Smokers also have a higher risk of developing skin cancer, particularly on the lips.

Smoking can result in the stench of tobacco on the skin and hair. It could cause hair loss and baldness. Additionally, it might make the nails brown or yellow in color.
