Patient's question:
Now it hasn't shown up yet, over an hour has passed; it's going pretty well now. Past treatment and effects: Given milk and egg white, in addition to mung bean water, what kind of help was it: Vomited a bit, but didn't see any mercury, is there any danger to life?Doctor's answer:
The amount of mercury contained in a thermometer is about 5 grams, and such a small amount entering the human body will never cause poisoning. Mercury itself is non-toxic; it only exhibits toxic effects after being hydrolyzed into mercury ions. When swallowed, the metal mercury enters the gastrointestinal tract and is quickly tightly wrapped by food, isolated from the air. Even if it stays in the intestine for a long time, it will never evolve a large amount of mercury vapor. Therefore, it will never cause poisoning in the human body. You can also eat rough fiber foods, such as chives, celery, and cabbage, which can promote intestinal movement and facilitate defecation. Wishing you good health!
