JohnnyFog Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I work in the medical field and I'm subjected to nasty bugs quite regularly. Even though we practice standard precautions, I invariably end up with a case of strep throat about once a year, which I'm dealing with right now. No matter what OTC medications or throat lozenges I would choose, nothing could really take the 'burn' away from trying to smoke a cigarette during this situation. Since I'm vaping now, I tried an 8mg e-juice solution and dialed the power way back on the Eleaf iStick (3v/5.3w) and can actually take a fair hit without sending myself into a gagging fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 When I have a sore throat I vape a sweet peppermint or some blueberry with some peppermint thrown in. That soothes the pain and tastes good too. I hope you're feeling better soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthling789 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Peppermint is excellent... so is honey-flavors, and even a butter-toffee or butterscotch work well too To reduce the throat-hit, higher VG juices, at least 50/50, and as you already found out... cut back the Voltage/Wattage a tiny bit. Oh, and drink plenty of fluids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
