Smoking when sick?

Ok, I know it's not good to smoke when you are sick. Aside from the fact that it lowers your immune system how else does it bother you when you have a head cold. I'm thinking take a ton of vitamin c and zinc and smoke a bowl... That will battle out the immune problem. I'm guessing the smoke itself will fuck up my throat and sinuses etc... Can anyone shed any further light on the matter?

obviously its not good for your throat and lungs to smoke when youre sick, however it does make you feel better for a little while.

Personally, when ever I have a cold or am feeling sick smoking a bowl seems to help my system a whole lot. Especially if my throat is hurting. The initial inhale of smoke kind of burns but when its done I feel no pain, even after my high is gone. I don't smoke more than a med/small bowl. Not enough to get me blown up but just enough to to feel at least a slight buzz.

If I remember correctly it increases your risks of becoming sick with something more serious, as it's generaly a bad idea to smoke, it's worse when sick as your lungs are already more vulnerable due to the cold. But of course I'm sure most of us have done it at one point or another, but in my experience if I smoke while sick I'll feel great for a couple hours, but the brief pleasure isn't worth the pain afterwards. If you really need to get high (hey, I'm weak willed sometimes too, it's all good) then I'd suggest using this opportunity to make some pot brownies or something and experiment with marijuana's medical uses. Have fun.

I was just sick for the past week or so with a head cold. I smoked throughout it. I find that before the throat is raw, when it is just itchy or soar a bit, smoking is very soothing. But once the throat is raw from coughing etc. smoking burns it even more.
But like I said I smoked throughout it and its gone now, it also helped me get through it with a smiling mind.

I always get baked when I'm sick.
Although doing this caused me to have a cold for like a month.

I don't usually smoke when my throat hurts. I remember once I had a bad sore throat and I took a huge bong hit. I felt 10 times sicker for the next few hours and it wasn't too cool.

Nah it's really not that bad.
That only happens if you smoke all the time when you're sick, like at least once a day. Doing it every few days isn't going to hurt anything though.

But I was just sick for like 5 days and smoked everyday... plus averaged like 7 hours of sleep a night... and I'm damn healthy now!

I think the bag of cubes was part of the reason I became sick in the first place. Mushrooms tend to lower my immune system... plus I had dosed them at 1am the day I got sick so being up till 8 - 9 in the morning didn't help much either. Now I'm better and the 24g's left in my bag are calling to me.
