Doctor's answer:
In newly renovated houses, the main toxic substances are formaldehyde and benzene. Mild formaldehyde poisoning will cause obvious irritation symptoms to the eyes and upper respiratory tract mucosa. The main manifestations include tearing, conjunctival congestion, redness and swelling, difficulty breathing, heavy breathing sounds, hoarse throat, speaking dryly or hoarsely, or a sticky sensation. Poisoning victims can also feel their breathing sounds becoming rough. Another specific symptom of mild formaldehyde poisoning is one to two degrees of throat edema.
