Silica Exposure

I had a short 5 minute exposure to old sand-blast remains when entered a storage tank-4 days back. Dust was flying in the air (though not vigorously) - due to the ventilation fan. I feel chest congestion now. Please advise if there is any credible risk of serious damage??

Thanks, Raj
