Can Hair Dye Cause Numbness In The Whole Body?
I went to a hairstylist and got my hair bleached and dyed. Now my whole body feels like it s going numb and tingly. Especially in my toes. Could this be related to the dye? I know there are people who get head numbness, but my head isn t numb. It s mainly my extremities.

Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
Yes it could be due to dye. I would suggest you following things:
> try to change dye of you always have problem from that particular one.
> take cetirizine one at night for 3 days.
Report to hospital if:
> Condition remain same after 2-3 days
> Any unusual symptom appears
> Condition deteriorates.
> There is difficulty in breathing.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
