Hello, Chemicals are strong irritants and inhalation can cause damage to your throat and delicate lung tissue. Take some antiinflammitory medication such as Tylenol or Advil. The antihistamine Benadryl may offer relief. Severe swelling can obstruct your airway and cause breathing difficties. Seek care immediately if your condition worsens or you have difficties breathing. Severe inflammation may need a steroid to control your symptoms. Keep well hydrated. Avoid all irritants inuding smoking, alcohol, acidic and spicy foods. Visit your doctor for prescription medication., Some prescription rinses may offer relief with medication to reduce inflammation, soothe your tissue and prevent infection. A clinical evaluation will give you the best diagnosis, evaluation of the severity and treatment recommendations. Thank you for your inquiry. I hope you will start to feel better soon.
