Is Accidental Swallowing Of Hair Dye Bleach A Cause For Concern?

Hello. I think I might have swallowed a little of the hair dye bleach from Splat. It fell on my phone earlier (I wiped it off but not with water) and later forgot about it and ate a granola bar after touching my phone. My stomach hurts now a little, but that s not abnormal for me (could be because I ate too much, nerves, etc.). I m really anxious about these sorts of things. Do I need to call poison control?

Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
No need to call a poison control center. Its very minute amount and such contact doesn't cause and corrosion. If there had been any, it may had burnt the food pipe first, then stomach. So I am pretty sure, you don't need to call poison control.

Maintain a good hydration. Fruits plus vegetable juices are good.

If I was your treating physician I would like to prescribe you Syrup Gaviscon 2TSF 4times a day especially before meals. And that's all you need.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
 

Best Regards!
