Other risk factors for COPD include secondhand smoke, pollution, or being exposed to certain fumes and gases at work. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_2" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_150"><h4 class="question">Quitting smoking doesn't help once you have COPD.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_487" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

There is no cure for COPD, but quitting smoking can help your lungs work better and lower your risk of dying from COPD. If you smoke, talk with your doctor about ways to quit. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_3" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_151"><h4 class="question">Smoking both marijuana and tobacco increases your risk of COPD.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_489" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Fact</label></li></ul><div class="answer" id="answer_151">The correct answer is fact. People who smoke both marijuana and tobacco have almost three times the risk of COPD compared with those who don't smoke. Experts aren't sure why, but they think smoking marijuana makes it easier for tobacco to damage the lungs. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_4" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_152"><h4 class="question">Most people can quit smoking on the first try.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_491" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Fact</label></li></ul><div class="answer" id="answer_152">The correct answer is myth. Most people try to quit about seven times before succeeding. Using quit smoking aids can help. These include counseling, prescription medicines, and nicotine patches, gum, lozenges, inhalers, and nasal spray -- some of which also require a prescription. Talk with your doctor about your options.</div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_5" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_153"><h4 class="question">Smokers have more COPD flare-ups than nonsmokers.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_493" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Fact</label></li></ul><div class="answer" id="answer_153">The correct answer is fact. Flares-ups are the most common reason that people with COPD have to go to the hospital. Having flare-ups causes your lungs to get worse more quickly. Call your doctor if your COPD symptoms get noticeably worse. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_6" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_154"><h4 class="question">Men's lungs are more likely to be damaged by smoking than women's.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_495" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Fact</label></li></ul><div class="answer" id="answer_154">The correct answer is myth. In fact, women's lungs are more likely to be damaged by smoking. This may be because of differences in genes or hormones. However, women who stop smoking get their lung function back more quickly than men. All smokers should try to quit. If you need help quitting, talk to your doctor. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_7" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_155"><h4 class="question">Smoking is not addictive.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_497" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Fact</label></li></ul><div class="answer" id="answer_156">The correct answer is fact. You may take in more nicotine if you inhale deeply into the lungs and take a lot of puffs. This is because nicotine gets absorbed into your body through the lining of your mouth and as well as your lungs. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_9" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_157"><h4 class="question">When you quit smoking, your heart rate and blood pressure return to normal levels.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_501" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.

Your senses of taste and smell will improve. </div></div></div><div id="quiz_slides_10" class="quiz_slides fade"><div tabIndex="0" class="quiz_content" id="quiz_content_158"><h4 class="question">Taking a puff of a cigarette can reduce your craving for more.</h4><ul class="answer_choice_list" id="answer_choice_list"><li id="answer_choice_503" tabIndex="-1" class="answer_choice"><input aria-label="A.
