Can coughing give you a double chin?

Question

i have had a really bad and unproductive cough these last few days and now i feel face is all saggy ...don't know if it's just cos i'm tired (been coughing through the night) but is there any way the coughing is "loosening" face muscles....feel all bloaty on face is horrible.

advice how to "slim down" face would also be useful

by the way - i shouldn't have put on weight as i've been eating and doing the same so it's either the coughiung that has made face look fat or i'm being paranoid!

Answer 1

This is of course an urban myth.

edit

To Holy c**p! below

Urban Myth just means an 'old wives tale' aka bullshit

Answer 2

No, coughing won't give you a double chin. If you're sick and haven't slept your face will be puffy. If you still have a saggy face and double chin after the cough is gone, then you might need to think about cutting back on the pie intake...

Answer 3

In a word no.  Only old age or being very overweight does that!

Answer 4

What would you describe as a 'productive cough' then?

Also: "an urban myth"?  I never heard of that one before.  Maybe I should check Snopes.

Answer 5

You're being paranoid.

By feeling **** is making you think you look ****.

Answer 6

Coughing won't give you a double chin, if anything it would exercise the muscles, to slim down your face try facial exercises, http://www.gm.tv/index.cfm?articleid=895...

Answer 7

Stop blaming the coughing and admit you've been eating too many pies.
