Avatar f tn m not a smoker but, When my mom quit smoking she did what my grandpa always said to do If you have a sore throat. It sounds nasty but my mom says works! And I know it works for a sore throat. You drink a tablespoon of vinegar and then right after a tablespoon of honey then drink plenty of water. The vinegar kills bacteria in your throat while the honey soothes it. Hope this helps!!
Avatar f tn I never went through the coughing phase when I quit. I too coughed when I was smoking. I have 70 some days of not smoking and I have the occasional dry cough. I hope you don't go through the coughing either. :) Yuck, coughed when smoking! I was so addicted I wouldn't stop smoking the cig. even if I was coughing. Again, YUCK!

Avatar f tn I'm now pregnant with my 3rd child. My last one was 13 yrs ago. My other pregnancies I was much younger and able to quit within a couple weeks if knowing. This time I'm 14 weeks and still struggling to quit. Me losing my job 3 weeks ago hasn't helped. Now I'm always home without distraction, so I find myself smoking more. I want to quit! I've tried gum, nicorette, cough drops, and e-cigs. I get more than your typical angry or irritable without a cigarette.

Avatar n tn He decided that he was going to smoke while he had this infection and it developed into acute bronchitis. When I came down with it, I decided that I was going to quit smoking once and for all. I had tried quitting before, but this time I was really motivated, and on top of that, smoking with the cold made me sick. I had the cold for about a week, and then was over it. However, about two days after I thought I was completely over it, I started coughing up phlegm and my throat was raw and dry.

Avatar m tn before i stopped smoking i was coughing alot through the day,now i breath eazier,cough a few times through the day,its a dry cough,when do your lung start cleaning the **** out,arent you ment to start coughing your lungs out when u stop smoking?
Avatar n tn In hindsight I think I was allergic to smoking and my body was reacting the way it was supposed to. And yes I was stubborn did the yo-yo smoking and getting sick and going to the doctors wondering why I was sick. Since I quit I have not had to go on an antibiotic for sinus infections ever again. Wish you luck :D Keep us updated.
Avatar m tn Hello, this is my second post and just a simple questions. whenever I don't smoke my morning cigarette ( because I don't feel the craving need if I start doing something ) after few hours I start coughing huge amounts of brown liquid which is disgusting and feels horrible. The time from the last cigarette until it begins is usually 12+ hours. i've had this when I tried to quit without wanting to, but got back to smoking and it stopped.
Avatar m tn I quit smoking and all the weird lung illnesses went away. I would have to take antibiotics sometime 3 and 4 times a year when I smoked. It seemed like I always was sick when I smoked. The only way you can tell if you have lung cancer is to go to the doctor. If you continue to smoke, any lung issues you might have will only get worse.
Avatar f tn I am excited that I have quit smoking for 4 months now. However, prior to quitting I never really had trouble breathing. When I first quit I felt great. Now all of sudden I am wheezing and I feel like I can't get enought air. My chest is extremely heavy. Why is this happening? Will it go away? Why did it start after I quit?

497868 tn?1212223282 ANd one more question I used to cough before stopping smoking, but strange thing happened I stopped coughing immediately after I stopped smoking am not coughing for 6 days , did not cough even once? Why it happened like that , You have mentioned that people who stop smoking develop a cough till lungs are all cleared up.
Avatar m tn You haven't been smoking long so I doubt if you've built up congestion in your lungs. Do you have a smoker's cough? If you do then it may show up...but unlikely. I want to give you a little advice. Quit now...just quit while you still can. I started when I was 17....and here I am at 55 desperately needing to get off of them...but one addiction at a time. Do they look for smoking in the Navy? Sorry I'm kind of ignorant on this issue.
Avatar m tn You can try some physical activities to divert your attention from smoking again and embrace the healthy diet. You can also look for some treatments to quit smoking successfully.
Avatar n tn i quit smoking 6 weeks ago. my lungs have been able to breathe much better all of that time, no problems, no coughing, now, all of a sudden, like within the span of two days, my lungs are bringing up junk. i went and got some mucinex the expotorant and cough suppressant type, and i can feel gunk, just coming up my lungs, its not helping and i've taken 4 of those today, should i use cough syrup ? is this normal ? the mucinex isn't putting an end to the stuff coming up.
Avatar m tn I was alarmed and quit smoking cold turkey for 3 months. About 6 months ago i quit smoking again but developed a productive cough a week later that lasted several weeks. The cough would produce phlegm, usually a yellowish-green color, with occasionally a little bit of blood. I smoke on and off still but 2 nights ago, after smoking 3 cigs i spat in my sink to examine it (a practice i started doing after the cough), and notice a small amount of blood in my mucas.
1425559 tn?1282786607 A few of my friends who had quit a while back warned me that I would be coughing horribly after I quit. Now I am a little worried because I haven't coughed period. Is something wrong with me because I don't cough any? I have noticed many differences since I quit..food tastes better, I can smell things more clearly but no coughing.

190673 tn?1259203266 If you are sick of this government, then quit smoking and quit giving your money to them. What a great new anti-smoking campaign that would be: Sick & Tired of the Government telling you WHERE and WHEN you can SMOKE? Avenge Yourself & Get Back At The Government: QUIT SMOKING ! off my soapbox now!
Avatar f tn I'm 29 in two weeks. Started smoking at 22 (seven years). I smoke a pack a day. Every morning I wake up with loud stubborn wheezing and I cough a lot. It's worrying me 'cause regular wheezing only started a few months ago. Before, I never wheezed. I'm quitting tomorrow. Is there any chance the wheezing and dry cough will go away on its own once I'm no longer smoking?
Avatar n tn I have COPD with chronic bronchitis but the phlegm has gotten so thick and I cough so much I am afraid I am getting emphysema and I HAVE to QUIT SMOKING.

Avatar n tn If I may regress, I quit smoking on Halloween Night, October 31, 1964. I collapsed with a perforated ulcer. The doctor told me I had to quit smoking because nicotine, a drug, activates the acid pumps in my stomach lining and would irritate my ulcer. It appears that maybe the lack of nicotine has caused some change in your stomach. Ten years ago, I developed a second ulcer, and I have taken one OTC Prilosec a day for 10 years with no problem.
