Suggest Treatment For Coughing Up Of Blood After Bleach Inhalation

my friend inhaled fumes whilst cleaning with strong bleach yesterday. She felt her chest tighen and had a puff on her inhaler. She also coughed a lot and coughed up a bit of blood. It is better today and she has had lots of fresh air and drank milk but she is worried she may have done some damage and she has also coughed some blood today

HI
Well come to HCM
Drinking milk here wont be helpful, the fresh air is okay, if the condition is sever then this need to be kept under the observation in intensive care unit for pulmonary care oxygen would be first measurement and anti-biotic, if this is not sever enough then simple oxygen therapy would be helpful with antibiotic, hope this helps.
I find this answer helpful
