Vapers are 存在 struck 負かす／撃墜する with a pesky cough ? and doctors say it sounds different to that of a smoker.

One London-based GP said has 扱う／治療するd e-cigarette （麻薬）常用者s who've developed a '乾燥した，日照りの' or 'wheezy' rasp. She believes the cheap gadgets, which are packed 十分な of a liquid 含む／封じ込めるing nicotine and other 化学製品s, are to 非難する.

A smoker's cough, 一方／合間, tends to be 'phlegmy', rather than 乾燥した，日照りの.

E-cig advice pages 警告する of the 'ありふれた 現象', 説 it's 特に problematic for new vapers who've just switched from cigarettes.

タバコ destroys tiny hair-like structures in th e 航空路s called cilia, designed to keep dirt and mucus out of the 肺s.

Once someone gives up smoking, cilia regrow and help to move the mucus out. This can also result in a cough that can last for months.

Professor Lion Shahab, co-director of University College London's タバコ and Alcohol 研究 Group, told MailOnline: 'Developing a cough is a normal 返答 to stopping smoking as the cilia in the 肺s 回復する and become 機能の again.

'So, if a smoker switches to vaping, something 類似の may be going on.'

Dr Hana Patel, a GP in London, said there is 'no （疑いを）晴らす 証拠' that the coughs are 直接／まっすぐに 原因（となる）d by vaping because the gadgets ? sold for as little as £5 ? 港／避難所't been around long enough to 確認する the link.?

She told MailOnline: 'They can 原因（となる） 味方する 影響s such as throat and mouth irritation, 頭痛s, cough and feeling sick.

'These tend to 減ずる over time with continued use.

'We don't know yet what 影響s they might have in the long-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語.'

Dr Patel 強調する／ストレスd that vapes should only be used to help you stop smoking, or to stop you going 支援する to タバコ.

Dr Nirusa Kumaran, another NHS GP based in London, 追加するd: 'Vaping can be a useful adjunct if you are stopping smoking.

'But it's not something I recommend taking up without a history of smoking. Without knowing the 潔白 of the vape you could be introducing harmful toxins into your 航空路s.'

GPs say?some people come in with a '乾燥した，日照りの' or 'wheezy' cough after vaping. The vapes are sold in a variety of flavours and colours and because they 含む／封じ込める nicotine they are 中毒の
