A member asked:
Inhaled shower water through nose without any coughing, how much would be considered worrisome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not to worry, water in TEXAS is good. If you inhaled water in an location that has lead or other chemicals not good for body and swallowed them every time you took a shower than some concern is evident.
