Quit Smoking Now Have Phlegm On Throat Posted: 03-17-05 00:54am
Hi I recently quit smoking (6 months ago)
I now feel phlegm on my throat. When I
talk during conversations I can feel
myself getting hoarse. When I cough the
phlegm off my throat it is sometimes
greenish. What is this? Thank you in
advance

Hi howard, I quit 12 years`ago and have
noticed the same as you. I have a
hoarseness occasionally and clearing my
throat helps sometimes but not always. My
doctor just looked at me like I was making
it up.
I have no clue but I do know that whatever
it is , it cannot kill ya!

Throat Problems, Can't Sing With Clear Voice Posted: 03-17-05 12:00pm
Thanks jophil28, it wouldn't be that much
of a problem except that i'm a singer and
that was one reason I quit to clear up my
voice. On pass times of quitting I would
notice in a few months that my voice would
clear up. I'm still waiting.
Could this have anything to do with acid
reflux? I have had noticable indigestions
and heartburn.
