Is putting face in front of fire bad for lungs??!
Question: i have a fireplace in which you only need a switch to turn it on, and i like to sit next to it & warm up, and sometimes I have my self directly facing at the fireplace, looking into it. Is this habit bad for my lungs or any other consequences perhaps from breathing it in??

I assume it is a gas fireplace behind a glass screen...The only thing is that you are inhaling warmed/hot dry air which can result in a drying effect on the nasal passage/trachea and bronchi...
Dry mucous membranes in the nasal passages can crack and bleed, make you more prone to infection....
I myself have asthma, if i were to do that i would be sure to get an attack. i highly dont recomend you doing that, it is very bad for the lungs, you breath in all the stuff that the fire is burning
