Lungs bursting question
    #5137644 - 01/04/06 03:37 AM (18 years, 1 month ago)

I have this fear about my lungs bursting.  Sometimes it will really bother me, make me very panicked, sure that any second my lungs will explode. 

I'd like to get over this weird paranoid fixation before I take shrooms again.  :mushroom2: So just to double check...how often to lungs just randomly explode inside of a person?

Don't worry about it unless you're diving while shrooming.

My old friend from high school popped his lung I THINK from taking one too many bong hits. That's the only thing I'd be worrying about...

I don't know if you can pop your lung just by inhaling... if you were to blast very high pressure air into your lungs maybe.

Thanks for the reassurance, people!  I just hope I don't become the one case of lung bursting ever recorded.  :blush: :wink:

Quote:

What are the dangers of scuba diving?

Many sporting activities have risks and scuba is no exception. The chance of dying while scuba diving is somewhat higher than boxing and over 40 times higher than playing football or water-skiing.

Many of the dangers are to do with pressure. A diver breathes air into his/her lungs at a pressure the same as that of the depth of water in which the diver is swimming. Pressure increases rapidly under water, and at 10 metres (30ft) depth, pressure is double that at the surface.

If the diver inhales into his/her lungs from a scuba cylinder whilst at 10 metre depth and then comes to the surface, the air in the chest expands as the air pressure falls. The expanding air will need to escape, usually through the mouth or nose, bubbling its way to the surface. If any of the air passages become closed (as can happen in asthma), the air cannot escape and will expand within the lungs, eventually causing the lung to burst. The consequences can be life threatening. Air can escape from the burst lung into the chest cavity (a condition called pneumothorax) causing breathing trouble, chest pain and sometimes death, or escape into blood vessels, carrying bubbles to the heart and brain (a condition known as air embolism), which is often fatal. These two events are known as barotrauma.

That's two different statements. You said "I THINK". Are you sure that the information you have is correct?

I've been searching for this on the internet, and I can't find anything about it.


I found this:
http://www.ajsp.com/pt/re/ajsp/abstract....9856144!9001!-1

Which claims that pot smoking can make a Pneumothorax more likely.

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000087.htm

"A pneumothorax is collection of air or gas in the space surrounding the lungs."

But nothing about a popped lung.

But I guess if you heard something about a friend who blew up his lung by inhaling really deeply off a bong, OBVIOUSLY he was completely right and couldn`t possibly have given you incorrect information. :rolleyes:

My brother has a condition called spontaneous pneumothorax, and a pneumothorax is not when a lung "pops". It's a weak spot on the lung, that causes it to partially collapse, and it's very painful.

The condition is most common in extremely thin, tall people. And Ellemy, if you had that, you'd know it by now.

Lungs don't just randomly collapse and/or explode. It just doesn't happen.

I don't think that lungs just 'burst'.

What happens more often is that they collapse due to diseases like pneumonia.

Yeah they dont unless you're breathing some rank stuff.  Its probably just the pot?  It expands your vacules in your lungs.  Dose, Then wait until come up, theeeen smokea bowl.  It rushed on visuals for me  :grin:. Try it out. :thumbup:

You've got a strong set of ribs laced with powerful muscles, a diaphragm, and an airway.  There are several layers of redundancy; millions of years of evolution have given us very good lungs.  Don't worry about it, unless you're into scuba diving, its never going to happen--not even from bong hits :smile:

friend of mind punctured a lung at age twenty six.  But he smoked like 2 packs of menthols a day, and at least a quarter bag of schwag a day...  out of a roor.  I think it was a really big bong rip that popped the lung.  Anyway, he had to spend 3 days in a hospital bed with tubes runing down his throat to re-inflate the motherfucker. 

but I really wouldn't worry if I was you...  this guy really treated his body like garbage.  Believe me, I met a lot of the women he slept with :smile:
