Quitting smoking may cause some nicotine withdrawal symptoms initially.

Nicotine withdrawal symptoms vary from person to person. The symptoms peak around the second or third day after quitting and then level off. Your nicotine withdrawal symptoms may include:
- Increased appetite
- CoughÂ
- Sweating
- Muscle aches and cramps
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Nausea

It is not necessary to have all the above mentioned symptoms in one person.
They vary from person to person.
