People do : Every time you inhale you may be taking in dust/dirt & other debris that is suspended in the air. It happens every day & the lungs have a dust trapping & removal system that eventually removes it. If you smoke anything, you may eventually overcome the lungs debris removal system & they turn black on the inside (I've seen it at autopsy). Unless you develop difficulty breathing ignore it.

Symptoms: To look for would be cough, shortness of breath or fever. If you develop any seek timely medical attention. If you do or you don’t maybe time to think about quitting vaping.
