Is there a correlation between stopping smoking and the the manifestation of shingles? -
I need researchers or serious thinkers to look at this question.
It is ofcourse unhealthy and politically incorrect to smoke. - Thanks for your time. MI do not know if there is a correlation, but it stands to reason that when someone quits smoking there is a certain amount of stress going on in the body, and shingles is stress related.. My guess is that the two CAN be related, but do not necessarily HAVE to be related.Shingles is the second stage of chicken pocks which is activated by exposure to others who have it. Smoking has nothing to do with it.Once you have chicken pox, the virus lays dormant on your skin. Shingles can develop later in life. What can cause the shingles to break out? Weakened immune system - Stress. Trying to quit smoking can cause more stress than you find normal and this can be a reason that you-d get shingles.Shingles is affiliated with Chicken Pox (herpes zooster) a virus. It has nothing to do with quitting cigarettes.Anything that causes stress can cause shingles to appear, it stands to reason if you are prone to shingles and are trying to quit smoking that you could develop shingels.Is there a correlation between stopping smoking and the the manifestation of shingles? -

How do I get my brother to stop smoking marijuana? -
My brother is a 17 year high school senior. My mom and i recently found out that he-s smoking pot. My mom has threatened to take his car away and punish him, but i think that will make things worst. Can anyone help me, thanks.whats the big deal? pot doesnt hurt his mental capabilities or anything except maybe a small percentage of lung capacity (about 2%). Okay i can see why telling him not to do it so he doesnt get arrested makes sense but any other reason is kind of ridiculous. If he goes to college hes just going to do it again because a lottt of people smoke there. But if threatening him with punishment hasnt worked then not much else is probably going to affect his way of thinkingshort of imprisoning him in his bedroom, I doubt there is much you can do to prevent him using pot. I think mom has the right idea tho-, he needs to learn that there are consequences for his behavior and losing his driving privilege might make him think that pot isn-t worth that. Frankly, when I found my son had pot, I called the police and turned him in, he spent thirty days in jail, and never smoked again. Now he is a decorated war hero from Iraq and Afghanistan and I am imminently proud of him... but he was smart enough to learn from his mistakes, is your brother?It-s normally at his age, The Majority of smokers usually fade out of it after college.Like the other person said. Report him to the police. It will make him change his ways seeing what drugs can get him into.How do I get my brother to stop smoking marijuana? -
