What neutralizes hydrochloric acid?

Answer 1

water... My apartments water supply has sewage in it, I think it's septic tank run off? I had been washing my clothes and bathing in the tub...until I noticed the smell..and everyone that encountered me smells it too...So like the puppet I am I pour bleach in the toilet and drains..guess what? I took a bath and on the way down to rinse my head, splash, diluted bleach bath water up my nose...I noticed symptoms right away but the went away for a little while ? I went to sleep got up early burning, blood in my nose... researched a little on the net drank water milk ate yogurt , washed off in the shower....chatted with poison control who said I would probably be fine since it was diluted bleach...? I was almost passing out I didn't get nausea and diarrhea till 4 days later? Washing off with a bucket and drinking water from a gallon jug for 3 days? I didn't remember in got on through my nose? Finally I throw my head back, and with a water bottle snort water and milk...I'm just now starting to fell a little better I think I am/was having Acidosis?My kidneys couldn't pass the bleach until the water /milk in the nose!chlorine combines with moisture to form hydrochloric acid from contact with the mucous membranes...! Now I fell like I've been swimming way too long...?!
