This is gonna sound gross and TMI, but

[XMit]

Anyone here who has switched to 100% VG juice. What's up with the "condensate" in the nasal exhales. I exhale through my nose to get a lot more flavor out of the drag and I'm noticing, um....drips.

It seems as though the VG condensates more in my schnozz and thus gives me the runny nose feeling.

Just me? Am I crazy?

I don't think I have yet to use 100% VG juice, but I noticed with the MadVapes Tobacco blend of juice that it seemed to make the back of my throat feel.... almost like there was a hair stuck back there on the exhale, plus it seemed to give me what my doctor called tonsil stones.

I haven't used 100% VG, the most I've used is 40% and have never noticed anything like that. Could be that you're just coming down with a cold, it's that time of year.

Maybe someone that vapes a 100% will have answer i vape the opposite with Pg but have not experienced that, i do have a bottle of vg that i been adding a little to 1 bottle to experiment with im not a DIY . I do notice a little more vapor and a slightly smoother throat hit vaping a little mixed in.

I think that is normal. It happens to me as well if I forcibly exhale though only my nose, while using a PG/VG blend. Normally that is not how I vape so it is not noticeable.

I use VG (and that tonsil stone thing kinda scares me!) but i dont generally exhale through my nose so i havent noticed that. I do tend to get a lot more build up or phlegm or something in my throat now tho.

I exhale through my nose and I use a blend of PG/VG juice. I have always had mucus/runny nose since I started vaping, I guess I just got used to it!

 

[leftfeild]

I have to use VG too and yeah, it doesn't make my nose run but it does make me phlegmy. I also had some gross tonsil stones really far down my throat. Not sure if it was from smoking or from vg. Once I hacked it out, and it was the most disgusting thing I've ever had the displeasure to hack out of my body so far, I've not had another. I feel for ya bassworm

I think it's maybe because vg isn't a germacide like pg is. It'll harbour germs better wont it? And it gives a nice lining on your throat for germs to grow on eww DX but I don't know I'm not a doctor or anything lol

I might have to start adding 10% pg or something to my mixes to see if makes a difference.

What nic do you use btw? I use a really low mg (4 - 8) so it might be nic related from it irritating your nose or something.

 

[XMit]

I'm at 18mg, I didn't notice it with PG juices though. If anything they dried my nose and throat.

 

[bassworm]

The doctor told me to gargle with warm salt water once or twice a day, and/or to use a popsicle stick to scrape the back of my throat if I wanted. I really wasnt sure if the VG blend was the culprit but I never had that feeling in my throat before I started the ecig.

 

[MusicBox]

I use 100% VG and same thing.
I just figure, more vapour = more water = more condensate.

 

[kabonk]

I use mostly 100% vg I don't exhale through my nose it makes my nose runny

[samwest]

I use heavy VG or 100% VG and don't get a runny nose when I exhale out of it. I also do not notice any plegm, phlemmies, flugermiesters, or any throat problems. Billowing clouds of fragrant bliss that kinda carry me up into them. I wouldn't mind my head being surrounded by clouds of vapor except it's hard to drive like that. Oh and it's about six mls/day.

 

[Iffy]

My first three weeks I had nose 'weep' using 80PG/20VG to 50/50. No issues since.

 

[HzG8rGrl]

I just sneeze when I french inhale or exhale through the nose! No matter the level, 80% of the time-SNEEZE.

 

[mariahpoo]

I vape 100%vg and ehale through the noes, no drips. But I have alergies so... I am use to ether stuffed up or runny nose. And both have gotten better since quiting analogs. I would say about 30% better on my alergies... so no help there.

 

[SnakeFarm]

I experience it with both bases, but I find myself actually taking advantage of the effect. First thing in the morning, my sinuses are usually uncomfortably dry. After a few slow nasal exhales, it's right as rain. Then again, I'm 49 and I lack tonsils.
