Question:

Smoking = sore throat?

OK so I quit smoking 4 years ago and just recently I started again, but not really, more like 2 or 3 a day. I don't need lectures, I know all about it, I quit before and I'm planning on stopping very soon. I just had a little relapse, that's all. Anyway, since I started smoking again my throat has been incredibly sore. I am not sure if it is just coincidence or if the smoking has caused it. When I smoked before, (for 10 years) I never had a sore throat due to smoking, ever.

Has this happened to any of you? Can smoking cause a perma-sore throat? Or maybe is this coincidence (it is allergy season, after all).

  1. I TOO SMOKED AFTER STOPPING FOR A DECADE. SECOND TIME, I DEVELOPED LOT OF ALLEERGY and sore-throat TO IT AND I DECIDED NOT TO VENTURE TO SMOKE AT ALL.

    My body, rather, rejected  for the second time


  2. It would be irritated because your throat is no longer accustomed to being exposed to the harsh smoke. I smoked off and on for 15 years and sometimes I'd get a sore throat if I overdid it.  

  3. This exact same thing happened to me last week. I quit for 3 years then picked up a pack last week - ended up with a wicked sore throat. I think my body was not used to the harsh smoke anymore. Had to stop - now, coincidentally, my lungs hurt like I have bronchitis. could be a coincidence or my body trying to get rid of the toxins.  

  4. the first time you smoked a cigarette, you didn't inhale deeply, you might have coughed like crazy, but you took it easy and gradually began drawing in harder.  This time, you had the habit already ingrained, so you didn't work up to a deep draw, you just started off immediately doing the same thing...no surprise that it made your throat sore.

  5. It's so tough to quit smoking. And after 4 years of smoking cessation, you should not smoke again. Quit it again and suffer from the smoking withdrawls is not the way you want to experience again.
