Is Gurgling Noise When Exhaling Due To Inhaling Fumes From Spray Painting?
Had a sore throat last weekend and I could hear wheezing and gurgling when exhaling.. no fever or shortness of breath or any chest pain, took lincomycin 1 pill every 12 hours it's been 5 days and I still have slight flue-like symptoms and when I exhale hard I can still hear the gurgling noise at the end.. also I was spray painting 2 days before the first symptoms, could this be related to inhalation from the spray fumes?

hello . it is unlikely it is caused due to the fumes , however there is a possibility that you were already having a mild lung infection while you were spraying, which may have got aggravated due to the fumes. thanks
