throat gets dry

[Lorenzal]

Hi All ,

I just started vaping last few days and realize that my throat gets very dry...I need to drink lots of water..also i developed a few new ulcers..Is that normal? Or could it be just coinsidence?

My apologies if i sound too paranoid..

Peace

The dry mouth is normal. Remember to drink, drink some more, and then drink again.

As far as the ulcers go, I'm assuming you mean in your mouth. Could be a coincidence, it could be related to the dry mouth, or it could be an allergic reaction. I would say up your water intake and see what happens. If they don't go away, consider a 100% VG juice or ask your doctor.

It dries your mouth, yes. Needing to stay hydrated is an almost-universal report amongst vapers. The vaporized eliquid attracts moisture in your lungs and that's the visible vapor you exhale.

The ulcers... do you mean stomach ulcers or mouth ulcers/kanker sore?

 

[Lorenzal]

Yes the ulcers are in the mouth. I think you are right Azmo , it maybe due to the dry mouth...didnt think of that...I will follow your advise and drink up more.

Thank you for the advice Azmo!

Does the dry mouth stay for ever? or will we get used to it and not notice it anymore after a while?

hey bazmonkey ,

The ulcers are in the mouth and i didnt know about the staying hydrated so i think that was a mistake i made...I think that makes vaping even better! No more ciggs and drinking more water!

Glad i found out this forum...

Thank you again Bazmonkey!

You will need to drink 2 - 4L of water/juice a day it will seem normal after awhile. Caffeine drinks don't count in that. As for the ulcers its just temporary they will go away I had them at the beginning not sure if it was because I wasn't drinking enough fluids or was getting used to the stuff in the.vapor but they haven't came back but was really painful for about a week.

Who have you been kissing lately?!?!?!

But seriously, the act of vaporization and inhaling the vapor tends to lead to a bit of cotton mouth if you don't practice good hydration. It's pretty common

@Mortificant : You know what they say , once you quit smoking , the DRIVE will come back...lol

I got bump on the inside of my lip when I stopped. Also, a few more pimples on my chin too. I think this is part of detoxing from analogs.

More then your lungs end up lasting longer.


The "hidden" benefit of vaping. Improved blood flow. Your wives smile more and roll away less.

Dry throat? Reduce PG % in your eliquids and drink water steady thru the day.

it took me about a week to adjust out of that feeling. I think it just takes some time for your body to get used to it. But ALWAYS drink plenty of water. vaping or not.

 

[mujuru]

Yeah... i drink SOOO much more water than i ever did prior to vaping... i am just constantly in search of water!! lol... And can i just say that water never tasted so darn good!!! lol

 

[Lorenzal]

Thank you guys for the nice advice... On another note Red_bird , may i know what is PG%? Excuse my boobies , oops i meant noobie question..

I have the same experience including mouth sore. I switched to SLS free toothpaste and now taking Vitamin B12 and everything is quite ok.

note: SLS means Sodium Lauryl Sulphate

I get dry mouth/throat as well. I have had the ulcers also, between lip and gums.

A bit of Lysine will get rid of the ulcers.

A mouth wash with dissolved aspirin ( uncoated) will provide temporary relief.

The mouth ulcers are a common side-effect of quitting smoking...
