What Do You Suggest For Flu Like Symptoms After The Paint Spray On The Face?

I was painting a ceiling And the paint sprayed on my face now i have a swollen face it is really itchy and blotchy. Also i have been feeling really unwell today, lethargic and have flu like symptoms. Are these related? And what action should I take. Oh and i got the paint over my hands and legs but only had this reaction on my face.

Hi,

Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic!

Yes, they might be related. It is a reaction to the chemical content of that paint. Treatment depends on the composition of paint. Please visit hospital as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your query.
