I have been smoking everyday for the past 6 months or so and lately ive been getting green coloured phlem when i cough Has this got anything to do with smoking or is it something different?

Green phlegm can be a sign of a respiratory infection such as bronchitis, which can be exacerbated by smoking. Smoking damages the cilia in your airways, making it harder for your body to clear mucus. It's important to see a healthcare provider to determine the cause of your symptoms.


When does cilia do not resume proper function after smoking?

Your cilia do not get affected by the occasional smoking. Cilia are affected in chronic smokers. But then there is probably nothing like occasional smoking. You are either a chronic smoker or nonsmoker. Smoking two cigarettes can make you addicted to smoking. Your cilia get damaged by chronic smoking. The pseudstratified ciliated epithelium is eventually replaced by stratified squamous epithelim in case of the chronic smokers. Such type of change is called as metaplasia. If you stop the smoking the original epithelium is resumed eventually.

However, considering that small, filtered cigars are about the same size as a cigarette, have about as much tobacco, have a filter, and are generally inhaled, it would not be unreasonable to come to the conclusion that the dangers of smoking a small, filtered cigar (such as Prime Time) are similar to those of smoking cigarettes.
