Should I smoke if i'm sick?

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by AlexHzzz, Oct 24, 2012.

  1. As of now I have sore throat, I cough, and a slight runny nose.
    This Friday is one of my friends birthday & he's going to buy a lot of weed.
    And I was invited to go and celebrate with him and some other friends, would I be okay if I smoked?
     
  2. yeah your throat may become irritated have some beer or water on hand you'll be feelin fine brother
     
  3. Once again cough drops will help out. smoking with a cold can suck but if you can tough it out to catch a high you'll be feelin fine.

    However if you're gonna be smoking with others while your sick maybe bring your own hitter or something. You don't need to pass that around.
     
  4. hellz yeah you should smoke.....
    it will make the pain go away and besides by Friday you should be feeling better

  6. Yeah, I was planning on smoking out of my own piece
     
  7. Hell yeah man. You won't even remember you're sick after a bowl. :hello:
     
  8. Fuck ya you should. Only thing that kept me from going insane when I had the flu. Just have plenty of water and smoke out of a wet piece if you can. If you do have a bong...rub some vicks vapor rub inside the main tube above the water...sorry i dont know proper bong terminology....jesus christ i never thought id say "proper bong terminology"..but ya, do that and you wont even need water, works like a charm
     

  9. That makes me cringe. Rubbing vicks inside your bong and inhaling heated smoke thats passed by it can't be healthy. I'm no scientist though, but I still wouldn't do that.
     
  10. I'm fairly certain you'll be fine...vicks is meant to be inhaled. I personally vape through my bong when i do this, so i know thats fine, and honestly the smoke should be cooled to about that same temp so you should also be fine. if you dont wanna try that put a bunch of mints in the water then, or best is mint leaves or oil, and eucalyptus oil. But vicks is fine for you man, youre nt heating it anymore than normally, and youre inhaling it like normal. Youre spreading it right below the top of the bong, mind you.
     
  11. I usually smoke when I'm sick anyway. Makes it easier to deal with since being sick sucks royally anyway.

    BUT, lemme give you some advice. Get your own piece, pipe bong whatever and stick to it. If you're sick and you're passing the same pipe to everyone else, you're gonna get everyone else sick and believe me they won't like it. So be courteous and keep to your own piece. Feel free to smoke with anyone, but make sure you smoke out of your own piece and they can pass theirs around. That way no one else gets sick and you still get to smoke and chill with friends and have a good time.

    Don't forget to clean your pieces after you're done smoking and you're not sick anymore. You can totally re-infect yourself later if you forget and smoke out of a piece that you were smoking out of while sick. I've done this to myself before and it sucks.
     
  12. I haven't toked whilst being sick but what I do know is it will taste different (most probably like shit) and sure, you might get the high you wanted but in the end you're just going to be coughing up quite an amount of phlegm.
     
  13. Thanks for the advice guys, but all I have is a glass pipe
    (Refer to my picture)
    Hopefully I'll feel a bit better by then
     
  14. Yeah bro just toke up. I always smoke when I'm not feeling too well (I also smoke when I'm feeling good by the way :p ) and it always helps.
     
  15. I would be more worried about being contagious than issues from smoking. Whenever I smoke when sick I feel 100 times better.
