weird, WEIRD throat feeling?

Discussion in 'Marijuana Consumption Q&A' started by Rookiesmoker21, Jan 14, 2013.

  1. First off, this may or may not be related to smoking... But it began when I started smoking, and I can't find anything on it anywhere through lots of research... So I figured I would try here.

    So, ever since I started smoking about a year ago, I have always had this really weird and indescribable throat sensation that occurs at random, usually around 10 times a day, however it is much more common and gets really bad after eating or smoking.

    As I said earlier it is really hard for me to describe... Which I realize makes this a very difficult problem to be assisted with online. The best way I could try to describe it is a burp thats completely inside my mouth... It makes a little noise, but not enough for anyone other than me to hear it unless the room was silent and they were listening for it. It kind of feels like acid is retracting up my throat. It isn't painful at all, but it's really annoying. It's almost like having hiccups all day, except its not hiccups, and kind of embarrassing if anyone were to hear it.


    I'm sorry for the lack of proper description, I guess the only other thing I could say is that when I think of "acid reflux" this is what comes to mind, however, acid reflux is just heartburn, and that isn't what this is.


    Thanks for any advice or suggestions you may have.
     
  2. I get that exact feeling too except its only after I take a hit. The bigger the hit the bigger the feeling. It also makes me feel a little lightheaded.
     

  3. I don't get lightheaded, but now that you mention it, If i take a bigger hit, the feeling does both become stronger, and more frequent... If i take a really big hit I'll get the feeling 3-4 times in the next minute or two, and its a lot louder as well.
     
  4. When you burp does smoke come out? Because it does for me and now that I think about it you are might be swallowing the smoke or something.
     
  5. If u feel like a little acid is at the bottom of your throat its acid reflux
    Try antacids or baking soda
     
  6. hm sometimes when I rip bongs maybe too hard my it feels... runny when I swallow
     
  7. No smoke comes out for me Oreos.

    Xitl yes it does, but I've been reading up on it and a lot of places say acid reflux is the same as heartburn, which I know for a fact is completely different than this. Heartburn (or apparently acid reflux, not sure though) tends to be painful from what I know, and this isn't painful whatsoever. It could be that what I've read about them being the same is wrong however, because acid reflux does seem to be the best way to describe what this is, so thanks for the suggestion and Ill try those out.
     
  8. holy shit, this happens to me all the time i just thought i was crazy. haha
     
  9. Sounds like acid reflux dude, happens to me on occasion when i have alcohol. Take a chewable antacid (works really fast), if that doesnt work just ask your local pharmacist for a stronger tablet form, they usually take a week or two to kick in, they just stabilize the acidity in your stomach. If that doesny work, talk to a doctor and you will probably get a blood test done as you may have too little or too much of something.

    They arent the same thing but acid reflux hurts a lot of the time too. But try out some antacids for sure, they will probably help
     

  11. So, I just take an antacid once every now and then and it should work... Or am I supposed to take them with regularity, or just when it flares up, or what?

    When it happens
     

  13. I know I shouldn't complain about a solution, but that seems like a bit of a hassle... Would the regularity of it decrease once I start taking them? like I said in the Original post I usually get around 10 or more of these every day. Which I'm guessing would mean 2-3 pills a day, if they only work for a few hours.
     
  14. Go to the pharmacist then, the acidity regulating pills change the acidity in your stomach and if it comes back after all the pills have gone you need to see a doctor. Might be your diet, yo.
     
  15. if you feel like acid on your throat it could be simple heart burn happens after i smoke or eat all the time tums fixes it for me
     
  16. I have this same thing, kind of. like when I go to the movies sometimes these little noises come out of me that I have no control over. like it looks like a hick up out of no where. I think its just from smoking, your probably swallowing some air that's just coming out later.
    I wouldn't worry to much about it but if its really bothering you or concerning maybe you should see a throat specialist.
     
  17. :hello: The only good advice in this thread!

    Don't screw around go to the Doc.
     
  18. its actually a saliva build up stick in ur throat and every time u wanna burp it comes up a bit but is just there try making ur self gag ull see a shitload of thick saliva comes out of your throat
