hair color reaction?

After the first time of having an allergic reaction  and it was fairly mild I guess I thought I could tempt it again but wondering now if the pains in my chest and fairly severe rash on my upper back are from this dye?  I did read of some of the nightmares already through this site involving hair dyes but it was over a week ago when I did this so just wondering if it will go away on it's own...

Thank you telling me what the name of the hair dye is. Perhaps changing
the way your hair is cut is a better possibility and a safer possibility than
coloring it. I wish you and your family well.  Eve

don't have a family Dr since first of last year because she is no longer in the practice.  The first time I used it is when it was a mild reaction but I figured it was just the sloppiness of putting it on which caused the reaction until I read a few articles online and discovered after the second time of using it that it was definitely the hair dye.  Thanks so much for the response.

I think your body gave you fair warning that it can't handle this hair dye.  You might want to read up on products like henna or forgo hair color.

Hello there,
I just finished reading your comments. If I read your comments correctly,
you still have a severe rash on your upper back. May I suggest that you
make an appointment with your family doctor and let your doctor see
this rash on your upper back. What hair dye did you use ? Did you buy
the hair dye over the counter ? Your allergic reaction doesn't sound
mild to me. If after using this hair dye you got pains in your chest and a
severe rash on your upper back that's not mild. If you haven't been to
see your family doctor yet about this, I would definitely make an appointment with your family doctor and seek their advice. Good luck to you.  Eve
