What Is The Tingling And Numbness In Left Side After Inhaling Bleach?

I mixed rubbing alcohol and comment with bleach to clean my bathtub and inhaled it while cleaning, I immediately got very dizzy, my skin was tingling and feeling numb especially on my left side, my nose is slightly numb as well and it bothers me to breathe or smell anything, all mainly on my left side! I m terribly scared something is wrong!

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Inhalation of these agents can cause symptoms. Symptoms can also occur with accidental ingestion.

The inhalation symptoms should improve once you move from the area to a well ventilated area.

If they do not improve or worsen then you should see your doctor for assessment.

I hope this helps
