"Many vapers have claimed that e-cigs have badly dried out the skin in their noses, in many cases causing random nosebleeds."

Where are these vapers?

"Prof Nirmal Kumar, a Consultant Otolaryngologist and the honorary secretary of ENT UK, told Metro.co.uk: ‘The risks of vaping are not yet fully defined, but there’s a growing body of evidence that it is not as harmless as we first thought."

Where is this growing body of evidence?

‘There are lots of chemicals in it that can harm the nose. But whether it will cause long-term damage is not yet proven.’

Which are these a lots of chemicals?

PG is hygroscopic - so the oft-cited advice to make sure of your fluid intake when vaping should take care of the prof's worries.

Random nosebleeds can happen to anyone; vaper, non-vaper, smoker, non-smoker. Guess it got more to do with proper hydration of mucous membranes.

Get used to some variance, Prof :D
