I worry now alot about the tar in my lungs from smoking for so many years. When I quit I coughed (and not much) for only the first two days, that was it. Anyone else cough this tiny amount with their quit?

I did not cough at all. I had other symptoms such as bleeding gums and dizziness.  I don't thinking coughing or not coughing after quitting is a sign?

I didnt have a cough either...after 52 years of smoking...

But the immediate relief I had in my ankles was amazing..all bodies are different...

Nothing to worry about...x

I didn't cough either. Don't worry Karen. Your body is starting to heal itself. It knows what it needs to do. All you have to do is keep going x

I didn't cough either.

No coughing, here...nightly coughing went away as soon as I quit.

Yeah in all my quits I've never had a cough but the longest I've gone as a smoker is about two years before stopping for several months. My husband had a bit of coughing after his last quit - and he had been smoking for a 20 years or so - It sounds like it may vary a bit from individual to individual.

I had a mild cough for a few days just recently, but mostly dry coughs.

I never had a cough at all.  I know some do and an expected I would as well but NOPE!

 

Sunny is right, your body knows what it needs to do to heal.  :)  

Farted a little extra but coughing nope

I don't remember coughing up some gunk two times in one day, very small amounts but that was at least two months after I quit, if I remember correctly.  I guess I had knocked out enough cilia that it took that long for them to regenerate/start working again.  I remember hoping that I would be coughing up massive amounts of gunk but it wasn't hardly anything.  Some people cough up a ton of crap while others only cough up a little or none.

 

I would be more concerned if you had a cough that hung around for a long time.  ;)

No only when I have a cold :)

But my gums got infected BIG time, after 5 months
