What Could Cause Light Headed?
Hey I have just cleaned my knifes with turpentine or terps and am feeling lightheaded now I didnt go closer than a few foot and left the lid on but didn t wear my face mask. I just wanted to know what I can do? And is there going to be any major remafacations? - Justin

Hi Justin,
Feeling lightheaded is due to inhalation of turpentine while cleaning your knifes. I highly recommend to:
- breath fresh air
- get your room well ventilated
- open your doors and windows for good ventilation
- wash your nose and eyes with running water
If you notice anything unusual, should contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible.
Hope it helped!
