@ PLP ^ Great endorsement!

@ NYC > 6:23 am? Congrats on 46 second inhale. :lol:

Thanks Eon. On same wavelength. I was looking into neti pots and examined some drugstore variants today! Your endorsement carries weight. :) Just used bong for first time in 3 months and noticed right off I was overloading myself. I inhale a lungful and then overload my lungs by the amount of...

Thanks, I'll try that. I never use a fan with pipes so will give a shot. But further analysis leads me to speculate my situation is sinus-centric, not lung-centric. The genesis of my problem is triggered when I irritate/injure my palette by locking my nasal passage to contain a lungful. My...

Belated Happy 4-20 all! :P The sun is shining in Cali... Got 3 new pipes. Will reveal one a day and finish with family shot. First up is SGW Micro... It has a disc circ and 14mm joint and is reminiscent of Toro Micro in feel, draw, function, and looks... One think I like better than Toro is...

Congratulations! GOOD LUCK! :D

Last year I smoked 1.2 grams (about a joint and a half) per day on average. I can specify that because I was in Florida a similar length of time last year and know exactly how much I took with me and consumed in a given period over several months. Quit smoking and began vaping last April and it...

I snotted one myself yesterday, and today you know I'm sore! :lol:

^ Same make, different models. That's the way God made us (if you believe in God). ;)

@ oldiebutgoodie > Responding to your perceptive post, since deleted. Found your anatomical and physiological scenarios quite plausible. We can all benefit from strengthening our anatomy. Although I'm not sure my physical condition bears as directly on my situation as the palate injuries...

Very apt description! ;)

@ VW > Not familiar with your terminology but I get the picture. Nothing is more unpleasant to me than trying to suppress a cough and losing the battle with a forced exhale though the nose and sinuses. This creates secondary soreness in the roof of my mouth that can last several days.

Will definitely be more cognizant of my breathing technique and various extraneous factors like bub vs. bong. Thanks, rab, will def do family shot when I reunite with my glass on 4-20.

Love that rack focus technique! Very nice bub and setup, rab!

By all means, goodie, please share your experience and any insights you've gleaned. FC is populated by numerous health related threads, by others aside from myself, and I know your input will be appreciated by all.

great piece shiz... on my bucket list!

Thanks Devo! I do use 7th Floor hose on my EQV so that isn't it. I agree with you (and HAL) about the impacts of larger hits which can be deceiving with a bong. The cool smooth vapor, and carb effect of the bong, produce bigger, milder hits. But dats wud me like about da bong! :lol:

Agree HAL. Being a macho man, and shotgunning my bongs to produce impressive vid milk shots for my friends, could have produced some irritation along with my zeal. I'll be more cognizant of the size of my hits, breathing technique, and variances between different vapes when I resume bonging. ;)

I'm in my 60s and that certainly is a factor. What I would have given for a vape 45 years ago when I first got into the devil's lettuce. ;)

agree, I came to same conclusion. I change my water between each bowl and am fanatical about clean glass. My doctor warned against using hot water in a bong precisely because humidity in the lungs can incubate infections. But I took his warning with a grain of salt since he doesn't vape or...
