Is Coughing With Pain In Chest After Being Exposed To Bleach Serious?
I was cleaning my kitchen floor today with bleach, it took about 2 hours, and I used a half bottle first scrubbing then with a steam mop. Now my chest hurts and I have been coughing all day long with a running nose (I probably blew it about 20 times) I finished up around 3 EST and I an still experiencing discomfort with deep breaths and coughing and a nagging cough. I am a long time smoker and have lupus and had 2012 pneumonia right lung, and then a total lung collapse, but the discomfort is more dead center of my chest should I make an appointment with my primary care doc in the morning?
