What Are The Symptoms Of Wood Stain Poisoning ?
Hi. I was recently handling wood stain, and think I might be poisoned, for two days and nights i have been enfeebled, not getting out of bed, except for toilet/food. In the beginning there was more shaking as well as the fever and sensitivity to cold , headachy, a kind of crampy ache above my hips and kind of dazed. Passing more wind. At one point I was swallowing a lot of flem, every few seconds or so, and a throaty cough .

hi,
All your symptoms are suggesting as viral fever.IT might last for 3-5 days.Take rest ,plenty of fluids and soft diet and salt water gargling. U can take paracetomol(crocin) tablet for fever and body ache.If u have high fever with chills, cold and cough persisting then consult your family physician.
