Avoid all smoke!: Exposure to smoke (of any kind, including candles), aerosols, fragrances, room deodorizers and diffusers can all irritate the skin and respiratory tract, including the throat. Stay away from the pot smoker when he's smoking, and all other scents & aerosols. It is a good idea to avoid perfumes and scented body and laundry products and all fabric softeners for now, till you are better. See a doc.
