I'm really worried about something that happened after using a VIP black hair dye shampoo. I dyed my hair with it and washed it off within 5 minutes, but then I started having really itchy eyes and this tingling feeling all over my body. I used the same shampoo two months ago after doing a patch test, and everything was fine back then, no side effects like this. Now it's been over 14 hours since I used it and my eyelids are still itchy and I'm feeling a bit of tingling here and there. Is this kind of reaction normal, or should I be concerned? I'm really looking for some advice on what to do next.

The symptoms your friend is experiencing, such as itchy eyes and tingling sensation all over the body, after using the VIP black hair dye shampoo, are not normal and could be a cause for concern.
Possible Causes
- Allergic Reaction: The patch test 2 months ago might not have detected an allergic reaction, which can develop over time. The symptoms could be an allergic response to one or more ingredients in the shampoo.
- Paraphenylenediamine (PPD) Reaction: PPD is a common ingredient in hair dyes, including black hair dye shampoos. PPD can cause an allergic reaction, which may lead to symptoms like itchy eyes, tingling sensation, and skin irritation.
- Histamine Release: The shampoo might have triggered a histamine release, leading to blood vessel dilation, increased heart rate, and itching sensations.seek medical attention

I've been having these white patches on my scrotal area, and they're itching quite a bit. A friend mentioned it could be a fungal thing, so I tried using some anti-fungal powder. The itching's getting a bit better each day, but the white patches aren't really shrinking. What do you think I should do next?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection such as jock itch. In addition to using an antifungal powder, you can also try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it to the affected area twice a day for about 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the white patches do not improve or if they worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
