Hi, thanks for using Healthcare Magic.

We are very glad that you are entrusting our consulting services to help solve your health problems.

Your complaint should ideally require further examination to confirm the cause. However, currently, we suspect your tendency to cough and hard to breathe if you smell the stinging smells from the cleaning liquid more because:
1. You are sensitive or allergic to these odors
2. The cleaning liquid had a very strong formula

The way to fix this is to recognize the originator of your complaint and avoid it. If symptoms are already present, you may take antihistamines. Or you can also use a mask if you're around an environment that is less friendly to you.

However, it would not hurt if you do check with an ENT specialist to look for other possible causes and discuss the therapeutic options you need.

I hope this information useful.

Take care,
dr. Nurul Falah
