A member asked:
Was exposed to paint or chemical fumes all night at hotel. no headaches. some nausea and burning in throat/stomach. did i cause any brain damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is coming from a neurosurgeon/painter: most indoor paint is acrylic water based. Oil based paint is used less and less due to hassle with solvents and long drying time. Lead paint is no longer used except in fine art work by artisis! In the future open windows and create ventilation if you are in an environment like this one.
