    I have a pretty bad cold, and I wanna smoke. Can you combine that you think? Or would it hurt your nose and troath just too much?

    When I smoke when im sick, i seem to get sicker. Dont smoke out of a blunt or a bong because then your throat will infact be wrecked. Not really sure how much better it would be, but do knife hits

    It depends on how bad your throat hurts to begin with, and how bad it normally hurts from smoking. And if your stomach isn't feeling too well, then you could accidentally take a hit that would make you cough and then you might throw up. But I think you would be fine. Try it out, and see what works for you.

    Hm well I smoked with glandular fever (bad troath infection it causes too) and that seemed to work fine, but I guess Im waiting till tomorrow with smoking any of my lovely hash; hopefully being a bit better then.

    i like to smoke, not if you got stuff to do, but like if you take the day off sick, smoking and sleeping all day is totaly awesome.

    I have the flu and I ran out of brownies (goddammit!) so I just spent an hour or two relaxing in my backyard in my favorite adirondack chair I've built with a couple grams of Hogg's Breath and my sherlock filled with warm water. Just popped in a cough drop, took small hits, and kept a bottle of water with me and I've found it quite enjoyable.:)

    I've never seen any science behind it, but typically most people say when you smoke a lot during a cold it extends it twice as long. Never been the case for me though, doesn't seem to make a difference. Although, whenever I have a cough to go along with it, I can't smoke more than a few bowls. After the first few I get into these massive coughing fits that last for like 5 minutes and I can barely breath after every hit.

    Why smoke when your sick? Why smoke when you feel like crap?

    To feel a bit less crap? its gay to just sit here feeling shit. Would making tea frmo weed also make it worse?

    personally smoking when i'm sick seems to make me get better sooner, always has so i dunno if it would be the same for you since it affects people differently.

    I only share my joints in the summer or with my boyfriend :p

    I heared it won't make you extra ill but its more since its relaxation and I'm pretty stressed right now so I kind of neeeeed it.

    Just still not sure if I should smoke now :(

    last time i smoked wen i was sick, i had already been caughing alot and the weed just made me caugh like shit. after though i lost my voice for 2 days from caughing so much. after the caughing fits it was good but i think it does extend my sickness a little bit. im not sick but i had the phlegm in my throat for 3 weeks since then. its starting to clear up now though. i advise making brownies or something.

    I can control caughing when I don't want it. Just sort of press the one side of your traoth till the other, hold that position till you're out of breath, quickly breath, one 'KKGGHHMM' and its gone.

    Is a great saver for your traoth :)
