Specializes in Psychiatry

Go to ER: Yes, go to the er. It's not clear that you've poisoned yourself, but it sounds like your lungs & airways are reacting to the paint you've been spraying. Was this indoors, and were you wearing a mask? Do you already have asthma? Er doctors can assess and help you.
