I have a bit of a chest cold and it seems to me that the hygroscopic properties of PG in ejuice would cause respiratory secretions to thicken and become more viscous possibly prolonging ones cold or worse, putting one at higher risk of developing pneumonia. I drink plenty of water, but I wonder how strong the local effect of PG in the lungs is? I know the simplest and best answer is 'don't vape when you're sick', of course. I just wonder if anyone has any more input on this.

This reasoning reminds me of trying to drink your way out of a cold/flu, tried that one with mixed results.Worse thing that can happen besides the obvious is you will learn for next time.For a chest cold I avoid all things with acid and eat bland comfort food with a remote control/mouse.Good luck.
I have to back off on vaping when sick ( not always successful ! ) PG has mild dis infectant properties ( from what I have read ) so ??
My coughing got real bad for a while and I do not know if that was because I was vaping or just the cold ?
