How Can Headache And Hoarseness Caused After Exposure To Chemical Fumes Be Treated?

I think I have chemical pneumonia. two days ago I spray painted a papertowll holder for my grandaughter. It took no more than 5 min, that evening I began to sound hoarse and a rattle was in my chest. I took meds over the counter and used nyqui. it does seem better now just a snagging headache that won t go away. is there anything else i need to do?

Hello,

Use symptomatic treatment if symptoms do not improve like feeling heaviness in the chest or breathing difficulty or cough or sweating etcetera. You need to consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
