Introduction

An American young man had a serious problem due to the fact that he smoked electronic cigarettes, and doctors had to remove most of his lung.

The Smoking Habits

Young Sean Tobin has indicated that he started smoking e-cigarettes at the age of 15 with his friends, while also exercising and preparing to become an MMA fighter, and for the past five years he smoked daily until he felt sharp pain in his chest and back and did not see a doctor if he believed his pain was caused by an exercise-induced injury.

The Diagnosis and Treatment

After the doctors carefully examined him, it became clear to them that his right lung was covered with black spots due to smoking, and despite their attempts to revive his lung and improve his condition, they did not succeed.

The Impact of Smoking on Exercise

Commenting on this question, the young man said: “I achieved the best results while exercising in the gym. I remember watching videos on social media about the harmful effects of smoking, but I thought that this case would not affect me, since I persisted in sports.
