HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for asking
Your query being appreciated, it is could be just you smelled like Dettol but it might not be that one, once you eat that then no need to worry about that, do not try to vomits, but just take it easy because we do not have any proof of Dettol neither we are sure about that, first you will have to confirm the contamination, if this is confirmed then you can see the ER, otherwise no need to worry at all, whole bunch of lettuce needs to be checked of contamination, hope this information helps.
