Does anyone have suggestions or kowledge on recovering from smoking?
I quit smoking a few weeks ago after 31/2 year of the junk! Is it possible to heal my lungs?
If not, how far back to normal can I get?
If my lungs can somewhat heal, how long will this take?
Thx for any input

Unfortunately you may not be able to undo all of the damage. For example, I have seen many individuals who developed emphysema years after quitting. However, after approximately 10 years, I believe, your risk of developing cancer approaches that of a nonsmoker.
