Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation In The Eyes And Nose

I was cleaning at work with straight bleach, and inhaled the fumes. I was working with the bleach for about 40 minutes, my eyes burned, my nose was running, and my throat was very very irritated. That was about an hour ago, and my sense of smell is weak, and my throat is irritated, and I have a slight cough. What should I do?

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having irritation in eyes and nose following inhaling fumes of bleach.
These symptoms indicate irritation caused by the fumes.
These require symptomatic treatment by the use of decongestants tablets and artificial tears eye drops for eyes.
If the symptoms persist you need to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
