Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of an allergic reaction or local inflammation due to the inhalation of the bleach. For this reason, I recommend using a local nasal hydrating ointment. If this situation persists, consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam, will be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
