Hello
Welcome to health care magic
To begin with Tobacco in any form is very injurious to health and you must avoid it, and please do not think if your grandfather and father are symptom free, its not affecting them.Tobacco can lead to various cancers from mouth to kidney , can cause diseases of respiratory tract, heart , arteries and affects almost every cell and tissue of the body.So, kindly refrain from it and quit if you are already taking it.
Hope i have answered your question, if you have any other query , you can write back to me or you can close the discussion and rate me.
Regards,
Dr. Rohit Singh.
