Hi,
I have had a progressively worsening cough for over 7 days now with phlegm. About a week ago i used a ot of bleach to clean my bathroom and felt like i had been exposed to quite a lot after cleaning as I could taste it. IS there a chance that this is the cause of my cough? thank you

Thanks for posting your query in HCM.
Excessive bleach fumes can cause soreness of throat which results in cough but it should not be a point to worry about.
I would suggest you to visit an ENT specialist for proper examination and treatment plan.
Hope my answer helped you.
