Bad to smoke herb while sick with cold ?

If it's a phlem sort of cough, I've found weed loosens things up and allows me to blow my nose/cough it out.

If it's a dry cough, the weed may burn or scratch at your throat when you cough, I've still found it to help manage the symptoms and pain, especially the nausea.

It certainly won't make you wake up sicker, but it may not help as much as you hope. The biggest thing smoking weed will do is help you sleep, and make you more likely to drink water.

If your body is fighting something off, giving it all the proper food and water it needs is the best way to help.

 

A few tokes, and 2 of those nyquils should knock you on your ass for the night, you may feel a little "dry" in the morning, that would be the nyquil. Make sure to get at the water as soon as you get up.

Hope you feel better soon.

 

Have you got a vape? I highly reccomend vaping over smoking when sick. You could also make single serving edibles, like firecrackers. I just find when i have a cold, all that dry smoke just kills my throat.

 

Sounds like your bassist has a volcano vape. They aren't cheap, but are certainly good vapes!

How do you toke? I have much better luck taking small hits on the bong when I'm sick, versus a pipe or rolling up a joint. The colder I can get the smoke, the easier it seems to be for my throat.

Sounds like some nasty sickness, are you lead singer or something?

 

Nah, I've got a wee cold and I've been toking through it, it sucks but the herb helps me relax and just accept the fact that I'm sick, and that this will all be over soon.

 

I had a cold last week, had acute broncitis and still toked. Took a week to go away. Didn't bother me much cause I was stoned so I didn't feel sick so it was actually nice.

 

Almost every time I'm sick I smoke. I guess it doesn't do too much except when I have colds. My stuffed nose actually seemed like it went away while I was high. Also you don't really think about being sick so you I would say toke when you are sick. Just be careful if u use a piece and share with others. Could possibly get them sick

 

Smoking won't make you feel any better in terms of your cold but it's still nice because you're probabaly in bed watching t.v and resting .Two Activites in which mj shines the brightest. :]

 

Yeah, I was sick for two day and I smoked yesterday and im feeling better today. I was coughing/sneezing. I smoked a little bit and it made being sick more tolerable. So I say " Have at it Hauss."

 

ive been pretty sick lately and the coughing has my whole body feeling sore, i figured smoking would be a terrible thing to do, but this moring i smoked a j and i felt 100 times better after i smoked. now when i came down all the symptoms came back. but if your trying to ease the symptoms and sleep, definately smoke a bowl or two

 

How you feelin now man?

 

Just smoked a bowl from my pipe while sick.
My body feels better.
But I'm still sick, maybe a little phlegm-ier than I was before and terrible cottonmouth... Oh well.
