Weird lung pain

CountTheCows · 04-23-2010, 05:45 PM

So last time I smoked I had this horrible pain in my ribs/lung area the next day everytime I took a deep breath which lasted 6 days until I mowed the lawn and after that it was more or less gone but I had never had that before. Anyone else experienced anything similar? Now I'm afraid to smoke because I don't ever want that pain again.

I did have some pain in my thoracic area at one point, I actually thought I had cancer straight away lol and went and got a chest x-ray. It was fine. Now I know it was just over tight muscles in my back and chest, probably from wrenching on bongs too much. Try getting a massage, stretching, or roll around on a hard ball to loosen the muscles and see if it makes any difference.

yoou're dyyiynggg. seriously though bro, we aren't doctors.

With that being said, I highly recommend a vaporizer.

If you're having "horrible pain" in your chest for any reason, don't go to YaHooka, go to the doctor!

i get that shit every once in a while. the first time i had it i went to the hospital cause i thought i broke a rib while sleeping or something. it's prob nothing too serious, most likely caused by an air pocket stuck around your lungs, likely from smoking. the pain's usually gone within a couple days.

When you have a collapsed lung, there is no pain other than from scars. You simply have trouble breathing, you slowly feel like you are going to suffocate and pass out. I suffered a collapse lung indirectly from smoking weed, I came out of the hospital after having a biopsy and wanted to smoke weed bad, so I did. I coughed and all the sudden, my wound opened up, in a loud way, like my lung was farting. Smoked a couple more bowls and went back to the hospital, which they informed me my lung collapsed.

it must be different for different people, my buddy had a collapsed lung happen to him and he said it hurt like hell

Good news! I smoked again and all was fine so I don't know what that was about. I'm just not going to suck in so hard in the future I guess. Thanks for all the input. I have also heard that having a collapsed lung hurts in a major way so that's not what it was.

lol!

It sounds crazy, but if you been sick for a while and been going through far worse, a collapsed lung was nothing. All I thought was oh shit, not the hospital again.
