Could Earache And Sore Throat Be An Allergic Reaction To Bleach?
hi, i cleaned my bathroom with bleach on Sunday afternoon. It gave a little cough soon after, by the next morning i had the worst burning earache and sore throat only on the right side of my body. I started to use Similasan earache relief. it helped with the ear pain, but my throat was still sore as hell. So Tuesday morning i did a warm salt water rinse with a little vinegar in it (only 1 time). Which helped my throat, but made me hoarse for the rest of the day. Okay its Wensday afternoon and the pain in both my ear and throat is little to none and im just a little hoarse. My question is was that an allergic reaction to the bleach...but how is that because i clean my bathroom like that all the time and that never happened before....or was it just my time to be sick....plus the brand of bleach i used this time was not clorox it was some cheap brand no name bleach....could it be because i used the cheap stuff..lol
