I quit smoking a week ago and im coughing stuff up? -
like flem and stuff...is this normal?
the fibers in your lungs and throat are called -cicela- might be spelt wrong ne way
nicotine.. not only is it adictive but it also acts as a paralyzing agent, the cicela in your lungs are design to wave about and clean your lungs, when nicotine enters your body they are paralyzed and can no longer clean your lungs proper, that why when you quit smoking your risk of lungs disease goes way way down, cause you body is able to get rid of the toxins you have been breathing in. The flem and such is mucus carring out thw tar and other products
yes
Yes absolutely. And it is a good sign. When your lungs are free from the garbage, they start working immediately healing themselves. There is a lot of foreign matter down in there, and the mucus is being produced to clean house and flush the junk up. You may even cough up some brownish, blackish stuff or even a thin tiny amount of blood. Everybody I have ever known, including my wife and myself, who has stopped smoking... has gone through this healing phase. You-ll be amazed in a month or so how clear your lungs feel.
you should go see a doctor just to be safe
