How Harmful Is Smelling Bleach Fumes While Smoking Marijuana?

Hi, this may sound silly, but an idiot, workmate of mine was using Bleach (undiluted) to clean his bong (15 to 20 seperate occasions he did so, apparently). He said he rinsed it out thoroughly with water every time afterwards, but I have used this bong many times after he may have potentially used the bleach. I never remember tasting anything too out of the ordinary, smelling bleach fumes, or getting sick, but we had a tradition of smoking after work frequently from his bong. Will this have lasting, negative health effects for me (lung damage, etc) down the road? Thanks!

Hi..

In case if the bleach was thoroughly cleaned and you did not immediately used it then there is nothing to be worried about..

But in future the use of bleach should be discontinued and you should use a clean bong..

For now if there are no symptoms I do not thing there is anything to worry..

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
