smoking and usage

mattd_9 · #1 (**permalink**) 02-16-2006, 02:18 PM

i was just wondering if i should keep smoking weed because every winter i get chronic bronchitis (hehe chronic), and i usually smoke 4-5 times a week, out of mainly pipes and joints
is weed gonna make this worse for me?
or am i just being a paranoid mofo?

i think my lungs feel pretty decent considering i smoke out of an 18" bong every night for about 4-5hrs straight. not trying to sound hardcore, cause right now, i smoke swag (main reason i smoke so much lol), and i'm sure htere's some people here that smoke more than their plants can grow.

be careful who you smoke with.

like the guy above me said, it could be cigs. i notice a HUGE difference between pot and cig smoke when i run. it also contains many more carcenogens (sp?). i mostly quit cigs a little over a year ago, but go through a pack about every 2-3 months, and they quite different. if you're smoking with someone that has a cough or something, light the tip of the pipe for like 10-20 seconds and then let it cool. a bong filters out any particles with the water, so you just get the smoke. if you wanna be alot healthier, buy a vaporizer or cook it ;D...

while smoking is certainly not healthy, i wouldn't think it's enough to soley shut down your immune system every winter. might oughtta start taking vitamins regularly to keep yourself healthy...muy importante. drink lots of water too.

If you only smoke 4-5 times a week and it's only in the winter, I don't see how weed has anything to do with the Bronchitis.

But if smoking weed is aggrevating your bronchitis, then I guess maybe eating it would be better. BTW, eating it is a great, long lasting high. I recommend it.

bronchitis basically when you bronchioles ( the tubes to your lungs) get cover in mucus (snot) and makes it harder to breathe/toke/run.

It usually comes and goes during the winter and its probably comparable to a small case of asthma so im not gasping for air when im sitting still, it just makes me cough more than normal even when i feel ok

Ever since I was little, I've had seasonal allergies and have become more prone to sickness during the winter. I find that marijuana doesn't really have much of an effect on this, but each person reacts differently. Like everyone has been saying, vap or eat it and you should be fine.

get a good cough in before you toke, open the bronchioles in your lungs, besides dont they give you shit for bronchitus, eating wounded be a bad idea if your worried, i would probably keep an inhaler close incase of any mishaps

Start making batches of weed brownies.

buy or make a cheap vaporizor.

If not, get a water pipe of sorts and fill it with very hot water, the steam will warm the smoke as it enters your lungs, probably solving the bronchial problem a bit.

I've also heard that mixing dried mint in with bud lowers the irritability of the smoke quite a bit.

THC is a bronchial relaxant, and many tribal doctors use it to cure asthma and thoratic pulmonary infections.

I say you talk to your doctor.
