Dear lybrate user. I can understand. It is always good to quit smoking for health reasons. Your friend should not try to avoid smoking, but he should completely quit smoking. There will be no problems if he quit smoking. There will not be any withdrawal symptoms. Take care.

If he has stopped, good, no problem, get a physician evaluation for any lung damages and medication, if necessary.
