I cleaned two days ago with bleach in all the rooms of my house, last night and today i have had burning in my chest, i cant smell anything and shortness of breath, sometimes it makes me feel as if im going to pass out. Is this something i need to go to the er for to get checked out?
Hello these symptoms, chocking (shortness of breath) and burning sensation are due to irritant nature of ammonia produced by bleaching. Since two days ago you cleaned your house and still symptoms present so take some steroid inhalation 2 puffs 2-3 times and stop. This will relieve congestion caused by bleach. Burning of chest will also be relieved by this but if you feel burning in chest then take antacid (containing tetracaine) and this will provide complete relief. In my opinion this is not case of E R just annoying.
