Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Indeed an odd problem to have you.
As per your history, you have inhaled the red spray when you were dyeing the hair of your daughter.
Hence you have got the red nasal discharge.
I would advise you the following:
First of all stop worrying if there is no local problem of nasal irritation and respiratory problem.
Stop the hair dyeing at once and do not repeat it unless you have commercial mask available or stop using such products.
Be in the open air.
Take plain water steam inhalation.
Consult a Doctor if there is local irritation or any other problem.

I find this answer helpful
