Why Does it hurt to breathe?

Question

OK, On Sunday I went swiming and i swallowed a little chlorine water accidently, later that night i started having problems breathing, i went to a doctor and he said i have tonsilitis, that is clearing up, i am still having problems breathing, it hurts, i have asthma, can you tell me why?

Answer 1

it hurts because youre stuggling to breathe!! go back to the doctor or use your inhaler to help open up your airways

Answer 2

You could be having an allergic reaction to the chlorine. I am allergic to chlorine and aluminum. Metal poisoning is often overlooked, but it has some serious consequences. I was lying unconscious and turning blue before a medical technologist decided to try an uncalled for test for his own curiosity and found that my blood had more metal than oxygen in it. Since removing metals is a process in and of its own, you would need to consult with your physician.

Answer 3

did you use any nose protection ? and does it hurt to breathe in or out/ or both? sounds like you just have a bronvhual infection.
do not be alarmed. this should clear up in about 2 to 3 days. ]if thats the case].
better go and have it checked out anyway just to be on the safe side.

Answer 4

Chlorine can be very irritating, I think you are right to suspect it may be the problem.


Go see another doctor.

Answer 5

It could still be lingering from the tonsilitis. It could also be your asthma acting up as a response.

Answer 6

Go back to the doctor fast. Something else could be going on there.
