Smoke in my lungs?

Question

I was in a restraunt just now and the place caught on fire. Now I can barely breathe and it's making me dizzy. Should I go to the doctor, or is there something easier I can do? What is this called, so if I do go to the doctor I can tell him what I have?

I breathed in too much smoke, which is why I can't breathe.

Answer 1

You need to go to the ER for evaluation. This is the same as an accident and you should be checked in case something more comes as a result of this. The bill should be covered by the restaurants insurance where you were when this occurred. Make sure you provide the name, address and incident information when registering at the medical facility.
You don't tell the doctor what you have.......you tell them what occurred and they will do the assessment, diagnosing and provide treatment if needed.

Answer 2

Ever sit besides a camp fire too long and drink too many beers? The next day you still feel spaced out? Well all that smoke is flying away from you and it takes time for the carbon to build up in your head and make you feel dizzy and slow. Put that fire in a building and huff some of that smoke, it will do the same thing, a bit quicker. The smoke is not in your lungs no more bro. If you got money to go to a doctor over a small discomfort, and the mind to beleave there is smoke in your lungs, you could probly find a way to sue the restraunt for your discomfort. You could be the only person who was there when the fire started who walked out with your pockets full of cash.

Answer 3

You should have said something right away. You could have damaged your lungs so, I would get to a ER and tell them what happen and how you feel. This doesn't necessarily have to be right away that you feel ill but, days later. You may have some damage.
