Choking

It is my understanding that there is something in cigarette smoke that paralyzes your lung cilia. Fluid or irritants can build up in your lungs but you don't cough. When you quit smoking, eventually your cilia heal and start to function properly to push mucus and debris out of your lungs-- hence more coughing, at least for a while.

 

I don't know if this is what is causing you to cough when you spray an antiperspirant but it might be. Switching to a rollon for a while is a good idea. Since I hate rollons myself, I'm afraid I can't recommend a good one but I'm sure somebody else can. Or try a cream-- at least those are less wet and sticky than rollons.

Yep, you wait till you spritz your perfume for going out too . Garnier and dove are decent roll ons :)

Wendy,

This is true about the cilia.  Your sensory perceptions change as well.  My shower cleaner, Kaboom I cannot use without the window open and a dust mask now or it makes me ill.  I also cannot stand the smell of flowery anything, makes me gag and gives me a headache.
