how to clean out lungs?????

[seefuthead]

so i was working renovating a basement today and they had to cut some cement to run the sewage pipes. they used basically a huge dremel type machine kinda like the ones road workers use. so anyways the whole basement was full of cement dust ( lime stone??) anyways so i was breathing this crap in for about 3 hours. there was some ventalation but dust was piling up faster then it could be ventalated. there were no respirator masks too. so anyways how can i clear my lungs out as im sure theres some cement dust in them. i can feel it itch. how can i clean out lungs??!Q?Q?!Q?

btw my boogers were all white and slimy( cement dust and snot mix i guess)

you can't.

if dust particles fall on your alveoli [sp], then they die. else, they get caught in the mucus and cilia surrounding your trachea, or nasal cavaty. ugh, it's midnight, i can't spell.

anyways, yeah.

Medical student?

[xIcewind]

nah, my authority isn't that high yet.

'advanced' AP highschool biology student that's rather proud of his national achievements in said field, and reading ahead.

though what i typed above is just what our teacher told us as a 'by the way' in reference to cigarette smoke.

Learned about the mucus elevator already eh hehe.

Maybe go see a doctor? You're probaly gonna get some infections now or something.

Or ask Bordello. I think thats his username. He's a med. student.

Huge dremel type machine?

Is that like jumbo shrimp or military intelligence?

[me!]

just place you mouth over a vaccuum nozzle and turn it on at high power.

There's nothing you can do. You'll just have to throw them away and buy some new ones.

[MrDisco]

what i dont get is :
why weren't there masks on hand?
why would you stay there for 3 HOURS breathing in dust? most people would leave after 3 seconds

I used to work with solvents and found drinking a few glasses of milk after my shift helped quite a bit to get the taste out of my throat.
