so if im coughing up this black sh*t do I have to stop smoking pot all together, or can I keep smoking little ammounts
Don't listen to this guy, he's an id**t. Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) is a bleeding condition in which the blood doesn’t clot as it should. This is due to a low number platelets. People who have ITP often have purple bruises that appear on the skin or on the mucous membranes (for example, in the mouth). The bruises mean that bleeding has occurred in small blood vessels under the skin. A person who has ITP also may have bleeding that results in tiny red or purple dots on the skin. These dots, often seen on the lower legs, are called petechiae. Petechiae may look like a rash. People with ITP may have nosebleeds, bleeding from the gums when they have dental work done, or other bleeding that’s hard to stop. Women with ITP may have heavy menstrual bleeding. For most children and adults, ITP isn’t a serious or life-threatening condition.
If Mark had read any reply before he posted, he would have seen this is nothing like what you all have. I am 27 and have smoked both cigs and pot since I was 15, cigs more when I was younger but now mostly pot. I experience the black stuff when I rip the bong too hard and cough my arse off and I get alot while recovering from a cold. Better out than in I always say. I say eat well, take your vitamins and quit the cigs. Honestly, would they legalize something for medical usage if could potentially kill you? And when was the last time your Dr. prescribed you a pack of smokes or a 12 pack of beer?
Just my 2 pennies, thanks for reading.

I have an appoinment with a pulmonologist next week and I will respond with his findings/outcome. I think you might find some interesting info at http://disc.yourwebapps.com/discussion.cgi?disc=62318;article=13378;title=Ravers+Edge[/url]
I have never smoked cigs only smoked pot a few times and smoke shisha on a regular basis, I got a cold this fall and the fist odd thing i noticed was this black in my flem. I wasnt sure what to make of it I figured it had to either be tar or coal or something but I'm only 18 and it kind of scared me I dont usually get sick at this time of year and my doctor tried to say nothing was wrong with me, just a bit of drainage. Black drainage? i dont think so. lemme kno what you think
I am having the same problem, that's why i searched this topic i do get the odd pain in my lungs sometimes, just recently i was smoking around a carton every 3 days, (200 cigerettes), i just went down to 5 MAX a day, i smoke an ounce of weed everyday no matter what, and it is good weed. but the difference here is that i have already went to go see the doctor, they scanned my lungs and they came out clear, im 17 years old and iv been smoking since i have been 11, pot and cigs (cigs acouple months later), now the doctor recommended to stop smoking for at least a year or untill your lungs clear, then you can either keep them that way or load em up agian.
dudes, she said she wasnt smoking any thing.......
just , recommended, ask your doctor, they will help fix you up in no time im sure of it.

Fewff, its good to see someone else has this problem, i feel better now, Im 28 female canada, and i smike a bit o weed LOL i do not smoke ciggs, but i am around ciggarette smoke ALOT!!!
i cough up the black sh*t all the time too. been smokin enough weed the last 3 years to make my lungs ache all day, hackin up black and white phlegm all the time, getting sick so often, and have completely replaced my seretonin thus pot is my brains only happiness chemical. All i wanna know is... Is it TRUE that your cilia can completely die from this and never wake up, and that the tar will never go away once that happens, which will then cause an early death from like emphesimia or whatever? are there ways around this that dont include less smoking? what if you exercise half hour for every bluntsworth or something? Dont just be a fag and say stop smoking, be realistic.

cool. good to see everyone else like me seems to get this. I smoked weed 3x a day or so for 3-4 years, have stopped for about 2 months and now am coughing up black strands from my lungs. It also seems to happen immediately after meals.
one thing you can do to keep yourself from coughing up sh*t if you smoke weed is buy a vaporizer, i did and i have been so happy with it, it conserves weed and saves your lungs from a couple hundren chemicals. the vapes (set at the correct temp) only heat the weed enough to vaporize the thc. so all you breathe is thc vapors, no smoke, nothing.
I agree absolutely, I just got a vaporizer because I got bronchitus which inspired me to quit cigs too (mostly.. alchohol does not help this) I'm down to a cig every few days or so and I vaporize except for when I'm at a friends or something. I had been hackin up dark flem during the bronchitis period (second time this year) but I noticed since I quit smoking ciggs and using the vaporizer I still get dark flem but it's alot less harsh when I cough it up. I've also began running a bit. Which helps get it out. But Vaporize! the effects are even better then smoking because of the lack of tar. I reccomend da buddha by 7th floor or a volcano. Or if you really wanna avoid putting anything in your lungs but can't live without mary J then for gods sake make brownies/butter and Tea yeah I know its a little different but Hey it's better then poppin painkillers. And rice krispies that get you stoned just straight ROCK.
and a side note.. when you quit smoking weed like cigarettes you actually get High off it again instead of tired! Think about it....

Im 24, i started smoking when i was 16 maybe 17.., smoking about 1 to 2 packs of cowboy killers a day and even tops/bugler(rollies) at times when i was poor..hell i even used to pick buts out of the ash tray and empty them to roll a full cig!on top of smoking a shitload of cigs/// i also smoked anywere from from 5-28 grams of weed a week....point being i quit smoking both weed and cigs about 11 months ago for my schooling...(freshman in med school) and i still constantly hack up massive amounts of phlegm...
just FYI hacking up phlegm is good for your body...really good!! it means your body is doin what it should! if you smoke years and dont hack up phlegm that can be a sign of stage one emphysema or much worse. whats happening is you got millions of little hairs in your lungs called CILLIA and they all move 2gther in a wave formation moving sh*t up your throat and out of your lungs via your esophagus. These hairs are protected by a layer of mucus called surfactant, this mucas or surfactant catches sh*t for you, like dust particals , tar, stems, seeds.... whatever and also keeps the hairs from being burnt to sh*t or destroyed...once sh*t gets caught in the mucas its moved out of your lungs by the cillia witch are underneath it...
now when you smoke a sh*t load and dont cough up sh*t that means you either
1 dried out the mucas,
2 dried out the mucas and burnt the cillia,
3 all of the above in a large surface area and killed the goblet cells witch produce the mucas/surfactant...imagine your lungs ultra dry, now breathing in and out causes them to tear repeatedly !...
what happens now that you dont have the proctective mucas and cillia, your lungs get sh*t in them and get hardcore infected even dust can casue serious infection....next
your brochials swell the f**k up from the infection your airways constrict and your air supply gets shorter ..need i say this can lead to many different ways of dying the possibilities are almost endless and all im sure are painful as f**k especially slow progressive suffocation...
first signs of this sh*t happenin(damage to lungs)
lungs hurt/sharp pains in a lung or lungs..mostly in the back like pin point pains....
sticky lungs..you feel like you need to pop em
weezing...in deep exhales or burning in deep exhales and icy cold on inhale...
heartburn like symptoms with out the food!
blood in phelgm.....this means lay off the smoking let your sh*t heal!!
your lungs are really soft tissue under that surfactant and cillia, you cant go frikkin around with that sh*t your lungs are fragile like a open wound treat them with care if possible lol ...it takes years for your lungs to fully heal if their applicable to even heal....be smart...the reason i quit was a good friend of mine developed a smokers form of lung cancer and hes only 23 and smoked for 3 1/2 years....remember its not the tobacco that kills you or the weed its the carcinogens in the smoke its self dont be fooled in to thinking you cant get cancer/emphysema from weed its just most pot heads smoke cigs so thats what its pinned on! and vaporizers are just as bad, come on, vaporizinga entire bowl and smokin it in one hit?yeah totally just as bad as a bowl or a bong its the same amount of smoke administered differently
!hacking up phlegm is GOOD but it means your lungs are saying hey give me a break f****r!! lay off the weed and cigs...
you can see the tiny hairs/Cillia (H)and then the Surfactant/mucas(J) that coats those bit***s.......
laterz
wish me luck in school as its a b***h and i wish i could smoke some damn weed!

alreet, i have a problem this black sh*t keeps on coming out of my lungs when i couch it sucks and sometimes it hearts .im going to a doctor and i think people that have the same problem should do the same. i have been smoking weed for about 2 years and TAC (solid weed),tac is worse for you as it has been cut with known stuff like (plastic bags,plastic cups) mainly plastic sh*t but it has been known to have more in it than that in it. i think to get this problem away STOP SMOKING WEED AND FAGS and try to stay fit and healthy. if the black stuff is coming up then its not in your lungs so see it as a good think. :-)
It also depends what kind of weed you are smoking. If your are smoking the mexican shwag bag, then it usually isnt grown as clean or properly as the primo dope. It is also more likely to be sprayed down. I used to smoke 8 grams of shitty weed a day for about 4 months straight. My cough got so bad that when i even took my puffer i would sound like i was haking up a long. After quitting the shitty stuff, and switchin to the more expensive weed, I lost my cough and stopped spittin up as much black sh*t. Use a vaporizer if you want to make a cleaner smoking device. It only burns the THC and keeps all the carcinogens out of the smoke you are inhaling. Although they are pretty expensive, they are definitely worth the price. That goes the same with good weed. If you dont smoke cigarettes or chew tobacco, USE A VAPORIZER and smoke PRIMO weed, I garuntee you wont have a cough or spit up that disgusting sh*t. Although, maybe once in a blue moon you might spit up some sick looking sh*t.
Good luck, keep toking if you got a sick job or are in high school. If you go to college/university, smoke it at the right times. Dont smoke it during class/school or homework because that will pretty much double your study time. Thats my best advice anyways, Good luck.
