Hello doctor,
I am 35 years old. About three hours ago, I was fleaing my dogs when I got a tiny bit of the flea killer in my mouth and on my lip. It was not alot. Will it harm me?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Flea killer contains ingredients that are harmful to humans but since just a tiny amount got into your mouth then its effect will not be poisonous. You need to wash your lips thoroughly with soap and water, gargle your mouth with water and spit it several times. Drink plenty of water or milk right away. If you experience (unlikely to happen) difficulty in swallowing, vomiting or dizziness, then you should seek medical attention.

Thank you doctor,
The only thing I have is headache which is probably down to my anxiety as I have been panicking.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Yes, headache is most probably due to anxiety and stress. It can be treated with Ibuprofen tablets 200 mg once today and should be repeated again if needed.
