I've smoked one cigar per day for the last five years. I wonder whether I'm hurting myself.

You won't inevitably get lung cancer, but you are certainly increasing your risk of lung cancer and other smoking-related diseases. Cigars aren't that different from cigarettes.

Obviously, yes. It IS tabacco. A way to kick the habbit is niccotene gum or you can "chew" on the end of a cigar without smoking it.

Each cigar is the equavelent of 60 cigarettes.
Does that answer your question?

While you don't inhale (theoretically) when smoking cigars, the carcinogens are still in your mouth, so you're still swallowing them. You're leaving yourself open for oral and throat cancers just to name a couple of possible problems.

Yes - smoking is hazzardous to your health - ask the surgeon general of the United States.

You can go to the doctor and have them to check your lungs out but I'm about 99% sure it isn't very good for you. Good Luck!

tobacco use of any kind is harmful, whether it be cigars, cigarettes, chew tobacco or what have you.
so yes, you are hurting yourself.

You definitely are. Smoking anything is bad for you. You will get lung cancer.
