Hello
Well , dont worry buddy , you will be fine , generally the body will recover within 5 years to more or less the normal status after smoking , so you just have to be patient and dont smoke again. The throat may take some more time and i would like you to gargle with warm saline water 2-3 times a day , it will help.
Thanks
