Suggest Treatment For Cough After Inhaling Bleach And Chlorione

I have a pool and was treating it and came upon a container that I was not sure what was in it so like a big idiot I stuck my nose in the container and took a big sniff! Wow! That hurt! Apparently it was some sort of bleach or clorine. Anyway, my chest hurts and I have been coughing ever since (been a couple of days). Will this go away on its on or is it something I should be concerned about?? I am 50 years old 5' 4 1/2" and can I lie about my weight?? lol just kidding..........I weigh 138

Respected user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
*This is Bronchitis following irritants inhalation.
*Usually go away with definite measures , only certain cases require
Doctor`s help.
- avoid exposure to any noxious substances / pollen containing atmosphere
if required use face mask of good quality.
- maintain your hydration with plenty of liquids.
- avoid oily / spicy / nonveg stuffs / excess ghee / cheese / sugars
- regular deep breathing exercises & YOGA for 30 min. daily help greatly.
- walking in fresh air to rejuvenate your lungs with enough quota of oxygen
- avoid smoking / alcohol / abuse substances use if any.
- remain ambulatory
- when resting prefer semi-reclining position ( keep back at an angle of 30
-40 degree ) to support lungs in better breathing.
- tincture benzoin / Karvol capsules inhalation in leukwarm water are of
great impact.
- gargles with salted leukwarm water & peppermint oil works excellent.
- Indian Tulsi, Turmeric , Ardusi are just amaizing.
- avoid places where there is no ventilation / suffocations from excess crowd
- if problem remains after above all , its mandatory to seek a Physician in
assistance but I hope that time will not come.
Hope this clears your query.
