Smoke inhalation effect!
I inhaled some smoke when my kitchen chimney caught fire.i saw black smoke coming out of chimney outlet and rushed down from my staircase.the stairs are outdoor but have created a enclosed type space.i took 2-3 whiffs of chimney smoke while rushing down and started coughing due to chilly smoke.
I had mild throat irritation for 2 days.now after few days i still get some throat problems like got some injury to throat while eating that healed and some other problems like pain on one side of throat that healed.
I want to know if there is any effect of such smoke inhalation to body because i feel out of breath sometimes and fatigued.

It depends on the amount of smoke you inhaled. It will be advisable to visit a pulmonologist & assess your lung function under his guidance
