What Are The Side Effects Of Hair Bleach?
Yesterday I had my hair bleached with a product for sensitive and highly allergic scalp/skin. We had used this product before and hadn t reacted to it but this time, much like the last time I used regular bleach my scalp swole. Stretched my forehead, I got itchy palms. Even under my arms were itchy. My face, neck, and chest were as read as a pomagranite. This morning I noticed that my forehead is beginning to swell. This has happened before and lasted about a week. Is there anything I can do to prevent more swelling?

HI
Well come to HCM
This could be due to late sensitivity of bleaching agent and this can be well treated with antihistamine and the best drug would be Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day if this does not improved then steroid can be added Tab Dexamethasone would be the choice, hope this helps, take care.
