Noticed Swelling On Head After Getting The Hair Bleached
Hi, I just got finished bleaching my hair and I'm having a strange reaction. I've bleached many times before with no symptoms, but this time a large, egg-sized section on my head has swollen up and my neck is very stiff and painful to move. Should I go to a hospital?
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain it seems that swelling of the head after bleaching of the head seems to be most probably due to allergic reaction or anaphylactic reaction to the chemicals present in the bleach/dye.
The symptoms of swollen head and stiff neck and pain is due to it..
I would suggest you to consult a Allergist and get evaluated and he can advise you injectable steroids so that the symptoms reduce quickly.. You can also be advised oral anti allergics like Benadryl for relief.. Application of steroid ointment can also help.. Do cool compresses over the scalp..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
