Hello.welcome to Health care magic.
1.Its just your feeling, not to worry.
2.Smoking is one of the cause for sure, but for regular smokers. In your case you have mentioned that, you have smoked only 7. Don't worry it will not effect.
3.Try not to make smoking habit, if you do so- then you have to worry about many things.
4.Not keep any thing in your mind, unless its evident symptoms.
Hope helped. Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
