What Causes Tight Sensation In The Throat After Smoking Marijuana?
Hi, im 31, been smoking weed with a little tobacco for a lot of years everyday, i just feel since a month ago like a have my throat tight every time after i smoke weed, it is a very anguish feeling and never happened to me before, i think it may be some allergic reaction or something. I went to the doctor and he said my throat is good. i quitted smoking 1 month, and tried to smoke again, but the weird tight feeling stills a while ago after smoking. I know i should stop, cause im not enjoying it now, but i would like to know what could be this, and if there some kind of way to not quite smoking at all and not feeling this horrible feeling.. thanks
