What Causes Vomiting And Cough After Smoking Pot?

I am a chronic pot smoker. Last two days, when I smoked (only one bowl at night before bed) I coughed so hard I threw up phlem several times. Should I be concerned? I have had a flu lately, but never had this happen before. It was definitely nothing to do with an upset stomach. The vomiting was unstoppable and due to.cough.

Addiction Medicine Specialist 's  Response
Hi,

Cannabis smoking is very commonly associated with lung diseases like bronchitis, though many people are not aware of it. In my opinion, you should consult your doctor and get yourself evaluated. A chest X-ray must be done. Till then, try steam inhalation thrice a day. Avoid smoking if possible.

Best wishes.
