Can Smoking Olive Oil Fumes Cause Pain?

i inhaled a lung full or 2 of fumes from bubbling olive oil and now my lungs hurt a bit im pretty sure it was not smoking but 'fumes', there was no black smoke coming from iti guess the whole of the inside of my lungs has been coated with a fine layer of olive oil, and lungs regenerate so i should be good in the morning right?
im not sure whether its placebo or not but my lungs seem to hurt a little more now its very late / early here and i cant sleep because of it, i went for a pee and it seemed a slightly painful like between my lower organs and lungs, have decided to drink lots of fluids and had a slice of bread pains just below my rib cage and behind my rib cage higher up (like where my lungs are)
thank you, im getting quite worried now

The inhalation may have irritated your airways (bronchi). If your symptoms do not resolve in the course of a day then you should see a doctor.
