Does Sore Throat Develop Due To Clorox Inhale?
I work in the jail systems. We had a breakout of scabies and had to do a massive clean. We used Clorox to clean the entire floor I work on. For the last few days I've had a sore throat. Do you think I could have breath a excessive amount of Clorox?. And what can I do to get rid of the spareness?
