What are the possible side effects of inhaling paint fumes?

Answer 1

Inhalation of rubbing alcohol vapors can damage the body's respiratory system, can damage the central nervous system, and can cause death. Even small amounts of alcohol can cause symptoms by irritating or damaging the nose and throat; damaging the nasal passages and respiratory airway; thus causing coughing and chest pain. Some people develop serious difficulty in breathing; this can pose a real danger for those who suffer from Asthma, as well as other respiratory problems. It can also cause brain and nerve damage.

Prolonged and repeated exposure can cause dizziness even vertigo, headaches, and confusion, loss of time, coordination issues, and numbness in the hands and feet, damage to small blood vessels and nerve endings, heart issues, vision problems even blindness, depression, nausea, vomiting, and memory impairment as it kills brain cells. Breathing in high concentrations of rubbing alcohol has a narcotic effect, causing one to feel high, that "feel good feeling." Exposure to the vapors and the chemicals within, can cause skin and eye irritations.

Users say that it causes them to feel an enormous high, a sense of euphoria, feel good, peaceful, serene, calmness, a sense of relaxation and ultimately they feel like they musthave it, therefore they become addicted to it.

People who have worked in companies that produced any of the rubbing alcohols, (back before they knew there was a danger) developed sinus and laryngeal cancers; they also developed breathing problems after inhaling the vapors.

Occupational Safety, which oversees workplace injuries, says that exposure to rubbing alcohol, regardless of the type, can be very hazardous and is extremely toxic to the central nervous system and to body organs. Rubbing alcohol is exceptionally flammable, posing a fire risk to anyone who uses flammable products around or near it.

Pregnant woman who are exposed to rubbing alcohol in any form are not only posing a risk to themselves but to their unborn child. The risk to the fetus is very high because the chemicals from rubbing alcohol can be absorbed though the skin or by inhalation; this exposure can cause serious health risks to the baby. It can cause an abrupt and spontaneous abortion, ending the child's life even before it begins. And it can cause birth defects, such as those seen in fetal alcohol syndrome or the child may be predisposed to developing cancer.

Answer 2

inhaling paint fumes kills brain cells which leads to many problems such as memory loss. It also displaces oxygen and leads you to a false feeling of well-being just before you DIE of lack of oxygen to the brain.
