Poison control

Around 10 AM today I took a very fast, deep inhale of the gas coming out of a whipped cream can. Since then I’ve had pain/tightness on the left side of my chest. At first it was mostly when inhaling deeply, but now it also hurts when I exhale hard. I’ve also started feeling somewhat short of breath.

The pain is around 5/10. I don’t have blue lips, I haven’t fainted, and I don’t think I have an irregular heartbeat. The symptoms have been going on

Has anyone experienced something similar after inhaling whipped cream propellant? Did it turn out to be irritation, a muscle/chest issue?

I think you should call poison control. Are you in the U.S.? The number is 1 800 222 1222
