What are the percentages of chances of getting cancer of the mouth from cigars verses the chances of getting cancer of the lungs from cigarettes? Been wondering on this for a while now. While I'm asking also include, if you have any relevant information on sinuses, for those who retro hale. Thanks in advance: Tim.

Go look up a Surgeon General's report. Statistics are broken down by type of tobacco and frequency. Usually don't differentiate between inhaling and not as well as previous cigarette smoker or no, which are likely important.

Haven't looked at the CG reports, but I can tell you that there are actuarial studies by very reputable life insurance companies that support the fact that cigar and pipe smoking do not increase the risk of early death nearly to the degree that cigarette smoking does. My company offers non-smoker rates to cigar and pipe smokers, while cigarette smoking automatically dictates a smoker rating and higher premiums.

Nice. Yes many employer sponsored health insurance policies allow for occasional cigars while not charging the smokers premium. That's definitely evidence that they do not see much increase in risk.
