Vape for a sore throat?

submitted almost 11 years ago by GhotiOuttaDHMO

Among the joys of having a wife who works a front-line customer service job and two kids in school (pre-K and K) are if there's a bug going around town we're pretty much guaranteed to catch it.

Lately the plague of my town of a couple thousand in general (and the four of us specifically) has been congestion from hell and a pretty annoying sore throat, and right now I'm experimenting with switching between the two recipes below. This got me to wondering if anyone else does something like this. If so, care to share your go-to recipe?

AquaBerry Blast:

9% TFA Watermelon
7% TFA Blueberry Extra
4% TFA Strawberry Ripe
1% koolada (menthol should be fine here)
1% MBV Key Lime (pretty much any sour note should be fine here)

SweetMint

1.5% MBV Cotton Candy (EM is fine here)
0.5% MBV Menthol (pretty much any 1:1 menthol sub should work)
0.5% TFA Spearmint.

Honestly, I vape our max VG hawk sauce when my throat hurts. Still get a hint of menthol and my fruit flavor, but the max VG tones it down to the point where it just feels nice.

For all it is worth, I don't "diy" my e-juices yet because I'm too new to vaping (and a bit lazy) but I can wholeheartedly vouch for menthol. It definitely helps me.

I have one I call death by mint.

It's a constantly changing blend of:

Menthol + eucalyptus.

Peppermint.

Spearmint.

Mint.

If that doesn't clear your pipes nothing will.

It's not exactly DIY, but I ordered Absolute 0 from The Vapor Chef. Stuff tasted like I inhaled straight-up Vick's Vapor Rub.

personally i've found nicotine gum for the duration of the sore throat to be far more bearable than any vape whatsoever.

I feel like any vape whatsoever is good for a sore throat. Mine always feels better when I vape and I absolutely detest menthol flavors
