Smokers' lungs often produce distinctive sounds during auscultation, such as coarse crackles or wheezing due to inflammation and mucus buildup in the airways. These sounds can indicate chronic bronchitis or other respiratory conditions associated with smoking. Additionally, diminished breath sounds may be present if there is significant lung damage. Overall, the lung sounds can reflect a variety of pathologies related to prolonged tobacco use.
