Suggest A Treatment To Reduce Trouble In Taking Deep Breaths

I was cleaning & mixed toilet bowl cleaner and scrubbing bubbles with bleach. the aroma took my breath away. I did a breathing treatment which helped , but still cant take real deep breathes and continue to cough. Any suggestions on what else to try or do?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Inhaltion of certain cleaners can affect possibly significantly affect the respiratory system with chest pain, shortness of breath.

If the symptoms are severe then it would be best to visit your doctor as soon as possible in case oxygen supplementation is needed.
If they are not severe, then this may not be needed and you can continue to monitor.

In addition to monitoring your symptoms and placing yourself in a well ventilated area, there is no other home management unless you are an asthmatic and need to use your inhalors.

I hope this helps
