if there is any question, go to an emergency room. Secondary drowning, is more common in children but can happen at any age under the right circumstances and your symptoms deserve ER evaluation

Please see urgent care or the Emergency room, depending on the severity of the symptoms. Monitor for fever, infection is another possible cause.
