Sore Throat When I'm NOT Smoking

[sugarmagnolia]

I haven't smoked in the month of February, but now I have an extremely sore throat and a horrible cough. Ironically this never happened to me and I was smoking every weekend before. I'm assuming it's just correlation and not cause, any suggestions?

Could be your body getting rid of stuff in your lungs maybe ?

Good Point Boss,
On the other side of this topic i find that smoking when coming out of a cold or flu can be really beneficial to clearing out the lungs. Keep on smoking unless you have some type of chest infection :).

Here's a real radical suggestion. Go see a doctor.
