Throat tickle, cough, flem

[techhouse1982]

I have been vaping a little over as year, I have not changed any equipment usage or different juices. I have tried in the past when I was having an issues with swollen throat I tried different variations of pg and vg but found out I did not have allergy to them. The past week, I have what started as a throat tickle and some flem, to now I need to cough to clear my throat and its getting worse. I have made no other changes in wattage, juices, or devices so I am not sure. Right after I inhale I feel the need to clear my throat. Help please, vaping is my crutch I used to quit smoking last may 2016

Could be the change in weather, at least here in the NV high desert. I get the same issue.

I'm fine with pg & vg, but am sensitive to other things in some juices. It can be the flavors or even sometimes the type of nicotine. You might try vaping unflavored to see if it helps anyway.

Congratulations! It sounds as if you have a perfectly normal throat/lung infection.

Nothing to do with your vape.

Go to your doctor and get it checked out.

For now, until you can maybe get it checked by a doctor...don't inhale the vapor into your lungs. There are many of us who get our vaping needs met by bringing the vapor into our mouth, holding it there for just a couple seconds...and then exhaling through our mouth and nose. The cheek cells, and the nasal & sinus passages absorb the nic in your eliquid very efficiently. I was an inhaling, 1 - 1 1/2 PAD smoker for 42+ years...and the mouth and nose method for vaping, has had me completely off smokes since Jan. 2014. Have never wanted another one!

Great advice JC. That is the way I have been doing it since November 2011 and after 45+ years of smoking, this method has kept me from wanting to smoke for going on 6 years. I have had to do a bit of throat clearing and nose blowing this year too but I feel sure it is because the pollen has been horrendous.

If I have sinus congestion I will get those symptoms, especially in the AM.
