Dear lybrate-user,
Please quit smoking and continue with your high motivational level NOT to restart. Within 3 -6 months, your lungs will be clear. You can do breathing exercises at home. You should not be with friends who smoke. Passive smoking also affects lungs. Try hard and persistently. All the best.
