Nostril damage!

[garcia1996]

For 6 months or so my nostrils were drying up badly and even scarring up. My nose was sore to the touch because of this.
I started using all-natural/organic, no coloring, etc. juices from a different vendor.
My nose is back to normal within 5 days.
Coincidence?

What vendor's juice was causing the problem?

You may have been sensitive to non natural ingredients. Since I've started vaping, I no longer have dry nostrils LOL

Dont' know if this is related but too much nicotine would burn my mouth and tongue. When I first started I tried 24mg of nicotine and it was so harsh it gave me vapors tongue. Down to 6 mg now and everything is fine.

I have the opposite. vaping and exhaling through my nose makes my nasal passages drip to the point where I have to blow my nose throughout the day. When I smoked, my nasal passages used to get congested and I constantly had to use either antihistamine tablets or nose spray to be able to breathe freely.

In my case, vaping has corrected my breathing and I no longer need to use a CPAP machine to be able to breathe throughout the night. We're all different.

Wow, it just occurred to me that I don't have the constant nasal dripping that I used to have constantly! I never figured cigarettes were the issue!

Personally I stay away from juice with food coloring. I doubt it can hurt you but its not needed.

I had the same problem a few weeks after I stopped smoking and switched over to vaping. After a month of misery I stopped using the premixed mostly PG flavored juices I was using. I switched to DIY unflavored VG juice with no PG and the situation cleared up completely. I can't say whether it was the PG or a flavoring ingredient that caused the problem.

Never had either problem mentioned here.....

ive noticed too that exhaling through my nose causes some irritation and makes my nose run as well. heck, last week my nose started bleeding while i was exhaling my vape! so i try to just inhale and exhale through my mouth now..but sometimes out of habit i exhale out of my nose and it stings a little. dont know whats causing it. ive been vaping the same juices and/or juices from the same vendors and i never had this problem til recently. maybe because of the weather change?

 

[Jayvaps]

sometimes exhaling out my nose makes me sneeze. :/

Unflavored Hi-PG, sore nose, mostly in the winter, saline solution every few days clears it right up tho.


I don't drink much water , so for me it's related to that also.

When did we stop telling each other, and newcomers, to drink alot of water??

I've never had the nostril problem since I am in constant allergy mode in California. However, I had massive dry vaper's tongue until I knocked down to 6 mg juice. No problems since. I buy from a variety of vendors with a variety of different blends. Perhaps you are dehydrated? I know that I am uber thirsty when i vape a lot and get chapped lips too.

 

[garcia1996]

This started happening last winter and after vaping new juices for 5 days I'm back to normal.
I had been buying from a vendor in Vegas for over a year. I'd rather not sat their name, as who knows whether it was their juice. They were a pleasure to deal with. I do know that their juices are not all-natural/organic and they do have coloring and probably contain the other additives I'd like to avoid. All their juices are 50/50.

Interesting. I had wondered today if my nose was dripping more when I vape more, thought it was possibly coincidence. I guess it actually could be related now after reading this thread. Thanks for the input everyone!

I have noticed my normal allergies (ragweed and stuff) aren't as knock me down...I still have em but no longer have to pop Zyrtec like tic tac's (benadryl knocks me for a loop!) and I do breath easier...hoping I can drop my VPAP machine too

 

[Dave Crabtree]

Dry nose, check. I do try to drink a lot of water. (Coffee is water, right?) And if I vape a lot before bed, my tongue is a block of wood when I wake up!

 

[meanckz]

What vendor's juice was causing the problem?

I'd like to know too

it doesn't hurt you, but I hear it's pretty bad for coils.

 

[meanckz]

well, when I vape fruity flavors I get wet nose a lot, other flavors not so much, fruity flavors make my mouth water more too....I also rotate 3-4 flavors tru out the day....I don't have an all day vape.
I also don't wake up with a dry throat and nose (like when I was smoking), this got so bad that it would hurt until I got some water or something wet down my gullet.
