Hello, thank you for posting your query in Chat Doctor. Passive smoking has harmful effects same as the smoking that cause health hazards. Tobacco smoke contains 200 to 4000 toxic chemicals including nicotine, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde which cause heart diseases, lung diseases like bronchitis, asthma, middle ear infections, tonsillitis and symptoms like cough, sore throat, nose irritation. If I were your treating doctor I would like to get these tests done.1. Blood tests to rule out infections2. Chest x ray3. ECG to rule out cardiac causes. I would come up with following possibilities like asthma, bronchitis, I would suggest you to consult a pulmonologist for further evaluation.  Wish you good health.
