natgnat Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Anyone else had this happen to them before? I've had the headache/nausea thing before from smoking too much, but this is the first time where I've not really been able to talk. Granted, I just got over some weird bug that was going around... maybe three bowls back-to-back-to-back wasn't the most brilliant of ideas.

Zinite Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Sometimes I wake up in the morning with congestion or a sore throat, but it usually goes away with a glass of orange juice. Probably the combination of being sick and smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the combination of being sick and smoking. I've had that happen too... but this has been going on all day! I did notice my voice was getting considerably lower and lower as the night wore on... then I wake up this morning and it's flat out gone. So weird.

I haven't any problems after I changed brands and techniques...Layalina isn't a shitty shisha... and the coals should be close to the shisha. There should only be the foil separating the coal and tobacco. More than likely, it's a combination of ash falling in the tobacco and having too much heat on it (too many coals).Hell, alumimum foil is .029mm thick, so the coals might as well be touching shisha directly as far as distance. The foil does dissipate quite a bit of heat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronvb24 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 This happened not too long ago to my friend who I was smoking with. He was getting over a cold and the next day he could barely speak.. He basically cleared his throat for about 15 mins and it started coming back. I would also try to drink a lot of fluids even when i smoke to help keep the throat from getting dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaronvb24 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 As for the Orange Juice it is good for vitamins, but if you are getting over a cold it will add to the phlegm and that will cause more problems.. I find to clear up the sinuses drink something carbonated. It helps break up everything. At least it works for me. I have chronic sinus issues.

TizaNabi Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I also get sometimes sore throats, hope its only the dyness and not a build-up effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjako Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 If I smoke 2-3 hours a day for long periods (5+ days) straight, I'll need to take a break. Feels more like bad cottonmouth then anything, gotta always chug water.As an aside, three nights ago I stayed up all fking night smoking for six hours straight and was fine the next day...just cottonmouth.Drink a ton of water, tea with Honey (honey is always good for the throat, when its irritated, or your sick etc).

Sylren Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I have a really sensitive throat and sometimes I get a sore throat or swollen tonsils. Nowhere near as bad as when I smoked cigarettes. Back then I was sick all the time. With hookah it only happens if I really over-do it. Just more proof that Shisha is awesoem and Cigs are gross.
