What Are The Symptoms To Watch For After Getting A Shock?

my daughter experienced a large jolt of electricity, power cord to a construction portable lab unit was not properly plugged in. She was able to drop the cord but not before seeing black, she didn t pass out, and then shock went up her arm. What symptoms do we watch for?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I would like to say you that the electric shock is kind of thermal injury if this not sever enough then no need to worry about this, you need to see the mark of burn where the live wire touched, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
