Just curious...

I got a terribly irritated throat yesterday when I woke up, just randomly. Through the entire day my throat just got progressively more irritated and painful. I hadn't vaped on my e-cig all day since I didn't feel like it with the irritation. I had about 7 menthol throat drops at work. When I got home, took a nap and woke up with an even worse sore throat. So basically yesterday I didn't vape.

Well this morning I got up and the sore throat was still there but I decided since the stupid menthol throat drops didn't work, I'd vape a little. I use menthol liquid so it usually feels good anyway...

Is it a coincidence that my sore throat suddenly just went away not even 30 minutes after I started vaping again this morning? I was thinking maybe it's like a humidifier...considering we blow out water vapor anyhow. I was just curious if vaping actually cured my sore throat lol. I usually don't recover from a sore throat in less than 72 hours. It had been just a little over 24 hours when my sore throat magically disappeared.

Vaping! Is there anything it can't do?

Lol right! I don't get ill often but I remember last time I did I hadn't found vaping yet. I wouldn't smoke cigarettes for days bc they irritated my throat so badly when I had a sore throat. That's why I avoided it yesterday, thinking it would bother my throat. Turns out it magically made the irritation go away!

That usually happens to me when I am dehydrated, and after I rehydrate I am all better.

Well, I'm glad I'm not just making it all up in my head!

You most likely became dehydrated. Vaping can cause dehydration. I always drink water or at least some type of beverage when I'm vaping, just to prevent getting dehydrated.

Is it odd that inhaling water vapor causes dehydration? You think it'd be the other way around....No, not dehydration causes vaping either lol

I actually don't get a sore throat from vaping. I had a fever of 101.4 yesterday, I caught a bit of a cold. Sore throat is usually what I get as a first symptom of a cold or flu. And yes, I drink plenty of fluids when vaping! Get thirsty lol.

only problem is it's not water, PG is well known to cause dry skin. while VG is used as a moisturizer most mixes are usually very low,even though the VG base could be coating the throat.

most premixed juices contain only trace amounts of water(if any at all) for thinning purposes only.

Whatever it is it's magic to me lol.
