phlegm from smoking weed?

Mercury · 04-15-2010, 12:43 AM

I feel like my saliva has been really thick lately (i.e. phlegm?). i don't know if I should attribute it to smoking marijuana or not. I used to detest people who spit when they smoked but now I find I need to do it more often myself. Is it catching up with me or what? I know I should start bonging it instead of pipe smoking. Also I haven't been smokign cigarettes for a couple months now.

How much did u smoke before? I always get some lung butter when i quit the cigs, pot makes it easier to get it all up.

Every now and then I'll start spitting up brown shit after smoking a few bowls, I had that shit like mad last week, every time I smoked I'd spit up a nice big brown ball of phlegm, I think you're lungs are telling you to take a break.

It's also around allergy season for some people.

yes, you will start coughing shit up if you smoke a lot of weed. blunts are a whole different type of cough

When airways are constricted, the air sacs that transfer oxygen (and remove carbon dioxide) from the blood are usually damaged. Mucus in the airways makes breathing worse... so the good news is that you can teach yourself how to cough effectively and it’s probably the one of the best way to clear mucus / phlegm from your throat.

Ones of the things I miss about ganja the most. Love coughing, feeling my lungs so clear afterwards, it's therapeutic.

THC is a decongestant, but the smoke itself causes congestion.

*Too much smoking anything regardless, will exacerbate the effects of congestion

Sometimes, i'll puff. But it's so rare. So I'm thinking of getting back into it, but I aint want no brown shit, for real dog.
