Ammonia gas inhalation

Common Questions and Answers about Ammonia gas inhalation

ammonia

Avatar n tn u can call a local health dept and ask in the mean time; they should all take pro-biotics which u can get at a vitamin store and take super high culture counts of at least 50 billion daily for couple weeks each and see if this does not make a difference.
Avatar f tn I work at a salon and unfortunately the chemical inhalation is not good. However, hair dye is no longer made with ammonia, so it is okay to color your hair.
Avatar n tn There is so little of the ingredients used to dye or bleach hair absorbed into the skin it is of no concern. The main concern is if the product used has ammonia in it as it might lead to fume inhalation which could make you sick. After the 2nd trimester it is considered safe to get your hair done. If you work as a cosmetologist you may need to wear a mask in the first trimester to avoid getting sick from fumes.
1134500 tn?1260875857 hi there i am a chronic cluster headache sufferer and i worked on a electro chemical machine for 8 years,after 4 years i started getting very painfull headaches,i went to a neurologist and he diagnosed me with cluster headaches.after reaserch on my machine i was exposed to ammonia gas given off from sodium nitrate in the water,the ph level was 12 when i found out after ph of 7 ammonia gas is given off,i was not protected by any ppe.
Avatar f tn It is also possible that, if the concentration of ammonia is high enough, chlorine gas will form. If it starts to give off a strong odour and your eyes are burning, flush it and open a window or turn on the ventilation fan immediately, then get out of the room. Chlorine gas is highly toxic.
Avatar f tn I have heard of this and it isn't safe at all nor remotely accurate. Urine has ammonia in it and when ammonia and bleach mix it releases a very toxic gas, and almost always when urine hits bleach it will fiz or foam that's what creates the gas. I had a friend who tried this once in high school, (just for fun, she wasn't pregnant nor did she want to be) and she ended up in the hospital from the gas it created. Sorry didn't mean to scare you just stating the facts.
Avatar m tn When bleach is mixed with acids (such as those found in toilet bowl cleaners), it reacts with them to form chlorine gas, which can actually be deadly. When it is mixed with ammonia, it can create chloramine gas, another toxic substance. Short-term exposure to chloramine gas may cause mild asthmatic symptoms or more serious respiratory problems. It can even form a toxic gas when hyper-chlorinated by hot water. In the environment, sodium hypochlorite is acutely toxic to fish.
Avatar f tn I've asked this question before.. I just like to be safe! Was gonna dye my hair purple for football season.. (go ravens.. even tho they are sucking this season!!) But don't want to if its harmful. I'm not bleaching.. not sure if thats good for the baby or not either.. but I found a hair dye that's ammonia free & peroxide free and just wanted to be sure that was ok & safe to do while pregnant? Only reason I ask again is because my sister keeps telling me I shouldn't.
Avatar n tn Urine has ammonia in it. Ammonia mixed with bleach makes a VERY toxic gas.
Avatar n tn There is more than one variety, and a specialist is needed to determine the specific type. Generally ammonia will destroy this kind of mold. I know people recommend other liquids, but ammonia is the way to go. Before using the ammonia the room should be "dewatered" with use of one of more dehumidifiers. These molds like moist places.
Avatar f tn I heard it was the ammonia in windex so as long as u get the ammonia free u should be ok but id talk to my dr first
Avatar n tn I need to know after a tracheotomy has been performed what implications does this have on respiration? How does this change inhalation, exhalation, gas exchange, and the muscles and structures involoved?
Avatar n tn has anyone ever heard of a child/person's asthma/allergies acting up after spending time on the ice? not sure if it's the zamboni's gas or gas from the artificial ice. my son has played hockey for 8 winters.... not sure if it's that or the mold in the rink.
Avatar n tn This pre-syncope (like lightheadedness and dizziness) is very early stage of syncope which may last for few seconds to minutes and can be prevented by early interventions measures like lying down, elevation of legs, deep breathing, immediate glucose drink and inhalation of any stimulant like spirit of ammonia etc. Please arrange an appointment with a neurologist who will evaluate the further prognosis here and can provide you an appropriate treatment. Hope this helps.
Avatar n tn However if you choose a diet rich in fiber you may be able to skip that. It will depend on your ammonia levels which a blood test will reveal. You need to get to 3 good bowel movememnts a day to keep blood ammonia down, which is the largest cause of brain fog. If you treat for hep C with SOC you should also see a drop in this problem as your liver returns to normal function and enymes levels.
Avatar f tn I believe that we emit ammonia from our bodies due to to the imbalance in our stomach and digestive track. Are bodies cannot get rid of the excess ammonia properly so it comes out through our pores causing people to sneeze and itch. I'm not a doctor, but I've had this long enough to know this is part of our problem.
Avatar f tn There are some bacteria in the gut that produce hydrogen sulfide gas. Sometimes this gas is produced in such huge quantities that the sulfide oxidase enzyme in the wall of the gut is not able to oxidize all of it and convert it to thiosulfate. Hence the gas enters the blood stream and gets filtered by kidney into the urine. This gas has a smell of rotten eggs. You can test its presence by test strips available OTC.
Avatar n tn Lung infections like pneumonia ,exposure to certain chemicals like chlorine, ammonia or nitrogen dioxide, smoke inhalation and certain kidney diseases can also cause it. Please visit your doctor and get yourself examined. Do keep posting.

Avatar f tn Basically I know it may sound silly but I can't stop worrying earlier I was round a friends house and they had there car engine running while cleaning and hoovering it and kept pressing on the gas peddle for god knows what reason but that's just guys and there cars anyways I was standing outside talking to my friend whilst he was cleaning and hoovering his car but the smell of the petrol was so strong that it actually got to my throat to the point that I was coughing was only standing th
Avatar m tn First of all, proteus can decompose urea to produce ammonia. We have all heard the smell of ammonia. The smell of urine in the toilet is the smell of ammonia. Therefore, the urine odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus. In addition, proteus produces indole and hydrogen sulfide in our intestines. Indole is another name for faecal odor. The reason why feces stink is because of the high concentration of indole in feces. The fecal odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus.
Avatar f tn If mixed with ammonia or acid-based cleaners (including vinegar), chlorine bleach releases toxic chloramine gas. Short-term exposure to this gas may cause mild asthmatic symptoms or more serious respiratory problems. (Source: Washington Toxics Coalition) You could try the following remedies. To be on the safe side, don't mix chlorine bleach with anything -- or just avoid chlorine bleach altogether.
Avatar f tn We all know that the gas could be hydrogen sulfide or methane or someting nitrous depending on what consume. But this doesnt explain how it passes through glass windows/doors. The sun emits infrared / UV radiations that can penetrate through glass and hence heat up our car interiors. Obviously, this heat radiations that the sun emits is odorless but perhaps our bodies emit similar radiations that are heaty and suffocating.
Avatar n tn I started having constant headache 2hrs after a chemical inhalation (duration~30min). It has been 1.5month but I am still having 24x7 headache. I am having pressing-type pain in the Forehead and both temples and bruise type pain on the top (like I have been hurt there). My CT scan and CBC came normal. I never had any health issues before. No headache history. Any suggestions what could have been wrong and how to diagnose? Thanks very much.
Avatar f tn These can be due to laryngitis or inflammation of the voice box, smoke inhalation injury to vocal cord, swollen tonsils or adenoids, allergic reaction to smoke or any other allergen or due to excess phlegm secretion again due to allergy. It can also be due to reflux. Gas coming up during a burp can also act as an irritant. Raise head end of bed. Take Omeprazole empty stomach in morning and an antacid gel at bedtime. Refrain from smoking, alcohol, fuzzy drinks, caffeine, and spicy food.
Avatar n tn Did it really stop the fibreglass problem.
