After the smoke stop
Stopping smoking is the most effective and best way to stop smoking cough. The motto is: The earlier, the better! If a smoker’s cough has only been present for a short time, there is a good chance that a stop smoking will cause the symptoms to recede.
However, if the cough has been present for many years and the smoker has been smoking intensively for many years, the symptoms may remain. This depends on how much lung tissue has been damaged and to what extent. Nevertheless, it is worth stopping smoking at any time, as the symptoms improve and the risk of cancer is also significantly reduced.
