so I was w my friend and we found a pack of cigarettes. Me being the kind of person that is "intol that kind of stuff, I took the pack. well I've tried a cigarette 3 or 4 times, I haven't finished a full one but if my friends are around and they are smoking one i might ask for a hit. I don't breath it in, I just keep the smoke in my mouth and blow it out, like gargling water. I didn't want to get addicted so I threw the cigs down the sewer. but can I get cancer from Just keeping the smoke in my mouth? I promised myself I wouldn't get myself into trouble with smoking again

Since we are not medical doctors we can't answer these questions with 100% certainty. Long term cigarette use has been associated with different forms of cancer. Even when we think we may not be inhaling the smoke, unfortunately we could be, even just by breathing in smoke from people around us. Having tried cigarettes only a few times, I would say that the likelihood that you are going to get cancer from that is slim, but continued use could increase your risk factors. There is a lot of information on the dangers of smoking online so you can always look there for more information.
