How To Treat The Damage Caused By Inhaling Fumes From Cleaning Products?
about 3 months ago I started a cleaning job, the last six weeks ive had a really bad cough, so have many of my friends, but mine never went away, the last 2 weeks ive been in bad pain in my lung, Ive went to the walk in clinic,they believed I was at the end of whooping cough, next I went to 111 clinic, they thought I had , pleurisy and gave me antibiotics but the pain in my side has not gone, and now my kidneys are very painful, I think that maybe ive done damage though inhaling fumes from cleaning products? what should I do and what is the treatment?

HI
Welcome to H C M
In my opinion
I advise
P F T (Pulmonary Function Test )
X RAY Chest . to rule out pleurisy
ultrasound abdomen for kidney pain.
Mean while you can take tablet paracetamol/ibuprofen for pain ,anti asthmatic inhalers
consult your doctor before taking any medicine,
Thanks
