I may have inhaled rust and smoking is irritating my lungs?

^ basically that, I was scraping resin out of a metal pipe and i might have scraped pieces of the metal off into the bowl and then smoked out of it several times for the next few days. when I smoke it feels like a tickling scratching sometimes painful feeling and when I breathe I can feel it more. I'm gonna lay off smoking anything for a while but when can I expect this to go away?
you need to step your smoking game up if you're smoking out of metal.
ok but what about everything else?
Get a new pipe.
Try glass if you're concerned. You can get em cheap at smoke shops.
I stopped smoking out of the metal pipe a few days ago, since then I've used a plastic bong lol. I'll get a glass pipe. i'm still feeling the pain when I smoke is my concern. is it going to go away or is it a problem?
maybe you're getting sick?
Is marijuana the only thing you smoke?
If the pain persists, I would go to the doctor.
yes weed is all I smoke. I don't think I'm sick because I only feel it while smoking. it starts slowly then ends after a while.
if you ever scrape something you smoke out of that's made of metal get a can of duster and give it a nice long blast of air all around, or simply use your mouth.
or just blow into it for a good 15 seconds or so.
even then the metal shards could get trapped in resin, then freed once the resin heats up the next time you smoke. then again that would probably be minimal if you were really thougrough with cleaning out your pipe.
a clean pipe is a happy pipe.
What the hell were you scraping it with that you created metal filings? For the future make sure you use material that is softer than the piece you are scraping because you dont want to start scraping your glass piece when you get that. I use toothpicks/popsicle sticks for a quick clean so i dont risk scratching my piece. Chemicals for a more thorough clean.
eh, i know a guy who smokes crack out of what used to be an inhaler, and he scrapes off the burnt plastic part where he roasts his crack to smoke, and gets a nice hit of polyethylene when he loads up the shavings. he's still alive.

Let's all aspire for a similar level of smoking class.
