It's intense but short, though it might not feel that way at the time. Nicotine withdrawal symptoms usually peak within the first 3 days of quitting.

Don't hug or kiss people who are sick either, they understand very well. A diet which is rich in fruit and vegetables, regular sleep at night, clothing that is suitable to the temperature outside and being well hydrated all participate in a good immune system. To help stimulate your natural defenses even more there are specific "immune system" treatments based on zinc, copper, magnesium and vitamin C.
Question: I am 31 years old, I have been smoking for 16 years and it's been three days since I quit, and I'm really determined not to relapse this time. I very occasionally have asthma in reaction to certain allergies. However, since the morning I quit, three days ago, I've been surviving on Ventolin. I have asthma all the time. It's tiring, I'm breathless. I think this week I'll see a pulmonologist, but there are only three in my town and I fear they are on vacation.
I'm a little worried Answer: Among the additives to cigarettes there are substances that allow bronchial dilation. It is therefore possible that by stopping smoking you accentuate your asthma temporarily. It is also possible that smoking cessation leads to anxiety which manifests itself as difficulty in breathing which can be interpreted as asthma.
To understand what is happening, the pulmonologist is the specialist to go to, but if all the pulmonologists of the city are absent your family doctor or a general practitioner will also be able to treat you. He may temporarily increase your treatment for asthma, which will prevent you over using Ventolin. Anyway, congratulations on your efforts.
Question: I quit smoking about a week and a half ago. I used to smoke a cigarette when I went to the bathroom. The fact of not smoking when I go to the toilet is making me constipated. Answer: As you have seen nicotine has a stimulating effect on intestinal transit and helps bowel movements and you have developed an automatism in this situation.
Constipation is one of the symptoms that occur during nicotine withdrawal. This symptom will gradually decline during the first months of quitting. Meanwhile, as it is unpleasant, I suggest you put things right using a simple remedy such as eating tamarind jam or prunes that have soaked overnight, in the mornings. If that is still not enough you may need to consider taking a laxative, preferably a fiber-based one. Good luck in your efforts, which will succeed if you can do without that cigarette to go to the toilet. If you keep the habit for a long time, there is a risk that you will increase your consumption bit by bit until you are smoking as many as you were before.
Question: It has been 3 weeks since I quit smoking and became a happy ex-smoker! There are a few lows, but a lot of great highs!!!
Facts about giving up smoking
I do have a problem since I stopped smoking though. I have a problem with my intestines; I often have pain and bloating which is not very pleasant and which coincides with my stopping smoking Well to be honest, I already had a problem with my bowels, but not as much and above all it did not last as long.
Could this be related? Answer: Yes, it may be related because nicotine activates intestinal transit. Therefore stopping smoking slows down intestinal transit, which can manifest itself as bloating and constipation, which can both cause abdominal pain due to pressure on the intestinal wall.
This gradually decreases with the disappearance of withdrawal symptoms in months. Make sure that you drink enough and increase the fiber in your diet with fruit, salad, vegetables and whole grain cereals and move! A laxative is only needed in cases of severe constipation. Question: It is now 8 months since I quit smoking, the first months I was very constipated and I had just recovered an almost normal transit by eating lots of vegetables and fruit.
Now last week I had diverticulitis which must be operated on next month. The doctor told me that this is due to constipation and stress. Could stopping smoking have caused this? Answer: Diverticulitis is not caused either by smoking or by quitting smoking and occurs in both smokers and non-smokers alike. On the other hand cessation may have caused constipation during the first months but not long enough cause the diverticula.
Diverticulitis is an inflammation of diverticula diverticulosis of the large intestine which appear very frequently as people get older, this takes place over a number of years not eight months. Constipation and a diet that is low in fiber could be contributory factors to the formation of these diverticula, but there are probably other causes that we do not know.
We do not know what caused a sudden inflammation of a diverticulum diverticulitis , just as we do not know what causes appendicitis.
Why You Crave Cigarettes Months After Quitting

On the main page you can view your list of benefits in the blink of an eye: always useful for staying motivated. The other benefits increase as more time passes. It takes 15 years for your risk of heart disease to drop to that of a nonsmoker.
Smoking increases your risk of suffering a stroke by narrowing the blood vessels, meaning less blood gets to your brain. It can take about 18 months to 15 years, depending on how long you've smoked, to get back to normal. The lungs start improving straight away. It can be a few weeks to a few months.
You will breathe better and you'll find it easier to exercise. While you will find your breathing is improving you will find your cough more. It may seem weird, but it's your lungs clearing themselves out. It will decrease after about nine months. If you use air purifiers, avoid air polluted areas and try breathing exercises it can help.
There's another reason to smile, your teeth brown with smoking so naturally whiten when you aren't puffing away. Those yellow stains will fade, you lower your risk of gum recession and your breath will smell better. The phrase you're glowing will actually apply. The chemicals in cigarettes breakdown your skin structure - elastin and collagen. When damaged the skin becomes loose. Nicotine also narrows blood vessels, limiting blood flow to the skin.
That means dull and creased skin. While quitting doesn't reverse wrinkles, it can slow down the ageing of your skin and prevent more damage. Smoking does actually impact on your breasts too. Chemicals in cigarettes cause skin to sag, so giving up means less sagging. Wake up and smell the roses! Well, not literally. Smoking dulls the sense of smell, so when you quit everything smells better. It takes just days for the change to kick in. Smell isn't the only sense improving - taste does too. Again you will find there is a change within days. Smokers have a diminished sense of taste, so wait for those buds to regenerate.
Smoking suppresses the immune system. You may find you get sick more and stay sick for longer. Smokers can also have autoimmune responses, that's where your own system attacks your lung tissues instead of battling the infection. Look out for the line between your new growth and the old. Don't try to diet while quitting smoking.
