What Causes Nasal Congestion And Metallic Taste In The Mouth?
Hi, a few hours ago i used a liquid multi metal polish in my basement and after i noticed nose pain, congestion, and a metal taste in my mouth. Could this be from the polish? And ive heard that smelling polish can damage your sense of smell, could that happen from this?

Hello,
Welcom to Healthmagic,
Yes nasal congestion are the precipitated by certain dyes and polishes,in accute cases.
Also metallic taste is another symptom of it. You don't need to worry about your sense of smell. It happen to be the professional painters or polishing guys who use to paint for years and are chronicly exposed to it.
Hope it will help
