Chest infections

Is it true that it takes a few weeks of stop smoking before the chest Starts to clean itself,and we get chest infections???hope not☘️ hugs all 👍

Hi Hannon, No its not true, It may be that some people suffer with coughing due to getting rid of all the toxins on the lungs. Yes you can suffer with what is know as quitters flu.

However quitting smoking doesnt cause any infection. Quitter's flu, also called smoker's flu, is a slang term used to describe the flu-like symptoms that nicotine withdrawal can sometimes produce. Is important to note that smoker's flu is not an infectious sickness.
