Are Dizziness And Pain In The Throat Post Exposure To Spray Paint A Concern?

Hi, I used enamel spray paint for a period of an hour inside today, but mostly in an area with an outside door open. I was thinking about protecting myself from fumes that might hurt my CNS, but did not think about my lungs. I was not wearing a mask and afterwards noted the paint coating my nose hairs. I never felt dizzy and later had a brief mild headache, but now my throat hurts (6 hours later) and I am worried about my lungs. What do you think?
