smoke after adding oil. please help

Asked by Dobby is a free elf Mar 26, 2021 at 11:25 AM about the 2014 Honda Accord LX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

hello, my friend checked my engine oil and it seemed low because the oil
only reached the first hole(indicator) on the dipstick so he added more oil.
There is no leak of any kind. Not sure why i let him do that but now there's
smoke(a bit) coming out of the back of my car. Should i drive it for a bit? or
might as well schedule an oil change? I have 50% oil life.

57811 miles on my car

2014 Honda accord lx

thanks
