Okay: Three cigarettes will have no long term side-effects. Do not make it a habit as it is easy to get hooked. Ask any older person who wished they never started and are now miserable. Short term shoulder pain usually not serious. If it doesn't get better, ask your doctor.

Please Quit Now: Smoking causes cancer. There is no minimal amount, under which cancer doesn't occur. Nicotine is a very addictive substance and 3 leads to 10-20 a day in time. Quit now before any long -term effects develop. Good luck!
