Vapor is different, your body is used to smoke. After a bit of time you'll get used to Vapor

What is your equipment, power level, and ejuice? Hard to know what the problem might be without more info :)

r055co is correct. I coughed for about a week after I started vaping. Some friends of mine even coughed up a lot of flem for a couple weeks also.
You are just inhaling a different product. It will stop eventually.
Without knowing what device you are using, can't help you much more.
A little more detail please

Welcome @Beadlz3 and I hope you enjoy your stay.

If the coil is getting HOT it makes me think what wattage are you firing it at and how long of a draw do you take? As others have stated it took me two weeks after quitting COLD TURKEY for vaping to not irritate my throat so there is an adjustment period. Good Luck

Also be aware that when you do stop smoking there will be a time where you're going to be hacking up some nasty shit. This isn't exclusive to Vaping it's what happens when you quit smoking. The hairs in your lung path that have been dormant due to the smoke wake back up. When they do they go "what's all this shit in here" and start clearing it out. It will last a couple of weeks, varies a bit but it's a good thing for it's clearing the shit out of your lungs.

It really is an adjustment from smoking. When you're smoking, you're accustomed to dry smoke, which is only even warm if you "hot box" your cigarette. Vaping is inhaling steam in the form of water vapor, very different. For a couple weeks after I started vaping, my husband said I was coughing more than when I smoked. But after those first couple weeks I was pretty well adjusted. Take shorter, more shallow draws on your vape till your body gets used to it.

Smoke from cigs actualy constricts your blood vessels in your lungs. Vape actualy expands the same vessel so u cough do to the change in your lungs as they expand and clean them selves u will stop caughing almost anyone that switches has the caughing problem

Welcome to VU. This is your body thanking you for letting it breathe, just cough it out.

This purge is a good one and you will notice your sense of smell improve as the coughing dwindles (assuming you were a smoker previously).

What juice are you using? High/Max VG from my experience is pretty rough on folks new to vaping.
