TOXICOLOGY- Arsenic Poisoning || Signs & symptoms || mnemonics || forensic toxicolgy

Arsenic poisoning is a medical condition that occurs due to elevated levels of arsenic in the body.[4] If arsenic poisoning occurs over a brief period of time, symptoms may include vomiting, abdominal pain, encephalopathy, and watery diarrhoea that contains blood. Arsenic poisoning, or arsenicosis, occurs after the ingestion or inhalation of high levels of arsenic. Arsenic is a type of carcinogen that’s grey, silver, or white in colour. Arsenic is extremely poisonous to humans. What makes arsenic especially dangerous is that it doesn’t have a taste or odour, so you can be exposed to it without knowing it.
While arsenic is naturally occurring, it also comes in inorganic (or “man-made”) formulas. These are used in agriculture, mining, and manufacturing. Arsenic poisoning tends to occur most often in areas of industrialization, whether you work or live there. Countries that have high levels of arsenic-containing groundwater include the United States, India, China, and Mexico.
Symptoms of arsenic poisoning -
(1) Red or swollen skin (2) skin changes, such as new warts or lesions
abdominal pain (3) Nausea and vomiting (4) Diarrhoea (5) Abnormal heart rhythm (6) Muscle cramps (7) Tingling of fingers and toes
Cause of arsenic poisoning -
(1) Breathing air that contains arsenic
(2) Smoking tobacco products
(3) Breathing contaminated air from plants or mines that use arsenic
(4) Living near industrialized areas
(5) Being exposed to landfill or waste sites
(6) Breathing in smoke or dust from wood or waste that was previously treated with arsenic
(7) Eating arsenic-contaminated food - this isn’t common in the United States, but some seafood and animal products may contain small levels of arsenic
