Hey fellas.. First time this ever happened to me and I figured I'd ask you guys. Every time I exhale I have a pinch in the back of my throat which makes me cough which ends up hurting more. Annnnnd no I'm not sick or getting sick. Also it's the same ejuice I've had for awhile and have been using every second or third change. Any ideas ?

Have you changed anything? Are you using a new dripper or RBA? a new device? new settings? Are you vaping heavier than usual? I second drinking more water. When I switched to RBA's and RDA's I started coughing, alot. Maybe you built a super coil that's producing mega vape that's hitting the back of your throat harder than before.

Ps. Do you have allergies. This is allergy season and it can cause more throat problems.

If it were me, and I really thought vaping was the cause, the first thing I'd try is changing out the liquid. Second thing I'd try is changing out the atomizer / cartomizer / clearomizer. If either one of those two options eliminates the problem, wonderful. If neither one of those things helped, I'd try changing the composition of the juice (a high VG blend instead of the high PG, etc.)

ETA: All of this is assuming you're really not getting sick...
If the symptoms remain, go get a qualified medical opinion.

You may have some epiglottis and larynx pain, if you vape a lot like me you get a bit of condensation in your throat and many times clearing it or trying to cough it up it eventually hurts. I get the same thing every now and again depending on how dry it is where I live. The best thing for it would be before you clear your throat drink some cold water and it will help the vape condensation come up. For medication go for some Ibuprofen between 200mg and 800mg. If you are swallowing and you feel some slight popping or pain we found the source. If you are coming down with a cold you may just simply need to vape less.

Well? Did it change anything? Are you still experiencing issues?

It was ok all evening. Stayed hydrated and changed flavours. But I woke up this morning and I couldn't vape for like 3 hours because it was so bad.. But again I drank more water and it went away. So maybe I have to stay a bit above 'hydrated'
