Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query nausea, headache and red face rash after smoking cigarettes is because of allergic reaction due to ingredients of cigarettes like tar, carbon monoxide and nicotine . I would suggest you to consult allergy specialist for proper examination without any delay so that it will not lead to anaphylaxis . You should avoid smoke , drink plenty of liquids and take benadryl twice a day . Doctor may give adrenaline shot or may prescribe anti histamine or anti inflammatory .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
