28.September, 2009
Hi iv been smoking since about june last year, but recently i have developed a horrible cough which i can pin only to this. I only ever smoked because I enjoyed it and told myself I would stop at the first sign of trouble, and i guess this is it.Havn’t had one in about a week now without any withdrawl symptoms except the cough. How long can i expect this to last?
Sorry to hear that you ever started, but congratulations on knowing when to quit and following through. This is a smokers cough that will not stop until your lungs are clear from some of the damage that the smoke has caused. This really doesn’t have a set time but is up to your individual health situation. If you have any health problems other than this cough then this would effect this also. Since you did smoke for almost a year then some damage was done to your lungs and it will take some time for it to heal. Try to stay away from any second hand smoke as this will irritate your lungs too. If it doesn’t stop within the month then make an appointment with your doctor. He might want to get some xrays of your lungs to make sure all is okay and there isn’t any permanent damage. Good luck with being a non smoker and God Bless

If you continue to not smoke, eat healthy, exercise and get lots of rest it’ll be gone in a couple of weeks. Second hand smoking is just as bad so watch out.
