The fingertip of the left little thumb has a bone comminuted fracture the size of a pen tip. There is a wound outside. The nail bed repair operation is done. The wound of the outer little thumb is sewn up in a circle and fixed in plaster after bandaging. I smoked two or three packs of cigarettes for five consecutive days after the operation. When I changed the dressing yesterday, the doctor said that the wound healed well, and then today someone said that I would have a second operation after smoking. Is this true

Condition Analysis:
For the situation you mentioned, smoking will lead to wound, delay healing, and affect blood circulation.
