in Chit-Chat
I bleached my hair with the bleach brand blue. I probably swallowed a bit of it while washing it off my hair. Now I'm paranoid reading stuff online snout paralysis or idk. I have a little heart burn now

    Depending upon the concentration/amount, I'd go to the Emergency Room.

    I assume that if you have heartburn, some of it irritated your throat; hopefully that was also what you spit/rinsed out & none of it is still inside you.

    Do you think I would have other symptoms of it were serious? I feel fine other than the heartburn and anxiety.

    I assume you'd be experiencing worse, if it were more serious but it's been 2 hours, so you should be fine. However I'd at least call a poison control center helpline, just in case.

    Called poison control. They said with the hair bleach so diluted he thinks I'm fine in this scenario and the heart burn could just be irritation caused by an upset stomach. I feel better now. Thank you

    Your welcome, possibly take something; for the heartburn then. If you experience worsening pain in your throat & for more than 1/2 of a day, I'd definitely go to the Emergency Room because then that might indicate esophagus damage.

    Thank you. I do suffer from anxiety. I did taste it but I spat it out which made me think I probably swallowed some... I feel fine though so maybe it was mostly anxiety... Thanks for the insight
