According to Russian therapist Lyudmila Laba, when smoking, as well as drinking alcohol within three days of the corona virus vaccine, can cause blood clots and exacerbate
potential side effects, as well as contractions in blood vessels, thickness, and severe blotting, just like when infected with corona virus and any other virus. So, in order to eliminate these risks, cigarettes and alcohol must be stopped.
She recommends that smokers take anticoagulants after vaccination, reducing the activity of the blood clotting system and preventing the formation of blood clots, as she warned, "And you certainly don't need to smoke."
According to lung physician Aleksey Nikichenkov, smoking after vaccination can become additional pressure to the body and exacerbate potential side effects.
He told Russian media: "After vaccination, immunity begins to work actively, whereas a person may suffer from flu-like syndrome: fever, poisoning, weakness, headaches, anorexia, etc. Of course, external body poisoning through smoking and inhalation of harmful substances puts additional pressure on the body, "explaining that the same effect applies to e-cigarettes.
According to the instructions, within three days after vaccination, it is recommended not to wet the injection site, not to go to the bathroom, quit alcohol and smoke, and avoid excessive physical effort. With redness, swelling and pain at the injection site, antihistamine is recommended.
