Irritated throat...

[ResinBalls]

This is my second round of quitting smoking. The first one was late last year, and I lasted 3 weeks. I don't recall having any adverse reactions to any of the pg or vg liquids I had tried, but now I seem to be having a semi-sore throat for the past week or 2. I've been to the doctor who has said my throat looked fine, but when I took a look at it myself, it looks far from it...white patches on the very very back of my throat, behind the uvula. Has anyone else experienced this. I've read numerous posts on pg causing some throat issues if not enough water is drank while vaping...this is my first thought. if not, maybe I'll just go visit an ENT and have it checked out.

HI, I also had some troubles with an irritated throat but it was the 100%pg that was doing it. White spots could be a sign of infection so I'm thinking a visit to an ENT is in order. I'm doubting vaping is the culprit here, more likely just an infection. Lots of bugs going around with the crazy weather. Good luck and I hope this clears up really soon for you!

Yeah, I'm making an appointment as soon as I have a free moment. I also forgot to mention, that I'm only using 50/50 pg/vg liquid at the moment, so I doubt that's the culprit too. Thanks.

White patches are a red flag to me for strep throat Better go to the doctors. I hope you feel better soon.

Strep has been spreading here like wildfire, but I'm not sure about your area. I'd get it checked.

Sounds like strep throat to me. Go get it checked out.

If it's not strep, drink more and more and then some more water. Vaping requires more water intake.
