Brief Answer:
Testing is important
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Your husband should not be exposed to the fumes of the paint further for next couple of days for sure.
Same time it is better to get tested for BP, blood sugar, ECG and Ultrasound of the neck carotids to check for carotid artery intimal thickness. This is essential because we would not be able to predict the potency of the problem in a man nearing 70 yrs of age.
Since he already had injuries in the recent past I do not think it is a good idea to wait for home remedies.
If his new symptoms are only because of the poisonous fumes of the paint they will subside on its own if not exposed to them for couple of days.
