Smoking Causes Spine Problem
The bad effects of smoking to our health are typically well identified such as lung cancer, liver and heart problem, genital dysfunction etc. Furthermore, habitual smoking can also cause severe damage to your spine. Recent research shows those chain-smoker people are most likely suffer from back pain. Though tobacco is not always the cause but the unhealthy life style of a person involve in smoking can also worsen the case.
Study proved that tobacco cigarette contains more than a thousand chemical and many of those are cancer related substance. Nicotine alone can block blood circulation that will result in the delay of oxygen that normally flows to your body. If this happen the nerve in the spine will grow weaker and so it will start to injure your spine. Proper blood circulation is extremely necessary to be able for the spine to repair and heal itself if in case there was a sort of problem going on.
An extensive research made by one of the well known university in the US-- undeniably confirmed the relationship between smoking and emergent Lumbar Spondylosis or a spine degeneration, neck and back pain. In an ongoing Clinical investigation, they found out that those medical practitioners who are involved in daily smoking habit and with higher cholesterol level are evidently suffering from spine and muscular pain.
Another negative factor of smoking can be associated in building up plaques in your arteries. Plaques in your arteries can lowered the needed space for the blood to circulate properly and this is very treating to your health condition because it may lead to heart attack or much worse, stroke. Also, delayed blood flow into the abdominal arteries cause by smoking can make your spinal disk delicate (or easy to break) and truly aching, added by the research.

But why is it that cigarette smoke causes all the lung/smoke-related diseases and not plug-in air fresheners, car exhausts, smoke stacks, corporate pollution, CITY LIVING?
I saw a show on TV where a surgeon opened up a patient and said, "Yep, city lungs."
Why isn't 'that' shown on public awareness adds?
Why do some little kids get lung cancer?
Why are there old people who smoke?
Why do the Japanese, who have a high smoking/per capita rate, have a relatively low lung-cancer rate?
It's been suggested that their diet of green tea and fish may explain it.
Or perhaps they don't have the gene that's been recently identified in a proportion of the population, which dramatically increases the chances of lung-cancer?
Why aren't these things discussed too?
It's time the 'what's bad for you' argument starts getting objective.
