Should I Worry If My Chest Is Feeling Heavy And Taking Deep Breath After Painting Furniture?
Hello. I just spray painted earlier today, a large piece of furniture. I dont know if it's a coincidence or not, but I feel that I am labouring to get a good breath in and my chest feels a bit heavy. I had a door to the outside open at the time, but there probably still were a lot of fumes. Should I be worried?

May be you are allergor hypersensitive to the paint you have sprayed.Wait for sometime ,if your symptoms persist then you should visit a pulmonologist to rule out chemcal pneumonitis.
