I used mine in a nasty-smelling (like cat pee, plus other oddities)
instrument case. That, and washing the horn itself, cured it of any
bad odor.
Generally injuries like this are masked by the adrenaline from the
impact. If you have ANY stiffness in the neck, get it checked out, it
could be a pain in the neck for years to come Do you have any minor
headaches? These are probably caused by swelling in the neck that slows
blood flow
Make sure you air out the car good after using the ozone generator. A
bit of reading on the net indicates that the ozone is not good for you
to breathe. Also suggests it is bad for various materials including
rubber and leather so maybe you don't want to run it any longer than you
need to.
The company that rents it says there is are detrimental effects on the car
interior for the given time and amount of ozone produced. And yes, they have
very specific instructions about airing the car out for 20-30 minutes after
using the ozone generator, as ozone is an irritant.
