Chest Pain After Using Paint Thinner. Fever, Muscles Hurt, Coughing Blood. Possible Reason?
yes, i work around solvents and paint thinner to remove ink. Yesterday cleaned using some paint thinner...about five hours later my chest started to hurt and it was a deep hurt. Then i feel asleep. I awoke with a fever and my muscles hurt alot. I also would caugh up blood every so often. I dont have insurance so im hesitant to go see a doctor. I still have blood coming up but not near as much as before. It almost 24 hrs now.

hi,
coughing of blood might not be due to solvent, you must be having some infection may be TB, kindly see your doctor ASAP.
wishing you good health
