What Are The After Effects Of Using An Inhaler Post The Asthma Attack ?

after a severe asthma attack over the weekend where i had to use my inhaler just about every hour, i have experienced some voice loss and pain in my throat that can be described as feeling like someone is cutting my throat with a sharp knive. i find it difficult to swallow and can only eat really small portions at a time. are these the after effects of the asthma or the inhaler?
