[|Human|] So I have for pretty much three weeks, and I have taken care of myself and my body pretty well since I was diagnosed. But last night I was around a few friends at their house and the were smoking cannabis out of a tobacco paper a few times while I was there, but I did not partake in smoking but was sitting with them around second-hand smoke. There wasn t a window in the house open, and I was with them for 12 hours. I feel absolutely stupid now, for being around the smoke!! Will this worsen the pleurisy and should I go to the doctor and get checked back out again for further damage to my lungs? I thought if I couldnt feel the effects from being around the smoke it wouldnt affect the pleurisy, but man was I wrong at least I think?! PLEASE HELP!
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns. Second hand marijuana smoke can produce a very small high(contact high) in people, around those who are smoking. The high that the non-smoking individual feels is said to be caused by the smoke that is in the room.However, second hand marijuana smoke is unlikely to have any effect on pleurisy for that matter to worsen it. Significant decrements in pulmonary vital capacity have been found in regular daily marijuana smokers and marijuana smokers may develop bronchial irritation. Whether second hand marijuana smoke will affect by-standers lung similarly await study replication and confirmation. Regards
