how long after you quit smoking will you cough up flem?

Question

years??

Answer 1

Usually it lasts a few weeks or until your body removes the phlegm stored up in the bottom of your lungs.

When you quit smoking, the cila in your lungs (little hair like fingers) start waking up and doing their job which is to remove foreign objects from the lungs.

When you smoke, the nicotine paralyses the cila so it hasn't worked well for however long you smoked.

If you were a heavy smoker, the more phlegm you will have in your lungs and the more you will cough up.

But hang in there, there will be a day that you won't have a smoker cough and you will have a body that works correctly again.

Good luck!
