can breathing in smoke from a fire cause lung cancer?

Lung Cancer Questions
I have been sitting at a campfire for three days now. Yesterday i breathed in quite a bit of smoke, it made me a bit uncomfortable and enough to have a heavy bitter sensation in my mouth. Do you think it might cause lung problems? I sit for about an hour and it has only been for these three days. Will it have an effect on my long term lung health?
I am not a smoker.

Check what you burn there. If you are not burning old tyres or melting some metals then you are fine.

It CAN but i am pretty sure it would take a larger consumption of smoke to cause lung cancer
