What are the side effects of inhaling fiberglass insulation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shortterm: In the short term fiberglass inhalation can cause wheezing and chest tightness. You should always wear a mask when sanding fiberglass because the particles can get down to the small airways and cause inflammation.
