Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I boiled water this morning and hours later I started smelling this weird smell like the one of computer chips so I went to check out what it was to find out I had left the stove on, the water was long gone and the bad smell as coming from the pot while it had build up stains on it. I wonder if this smell is toxic or dangerous if I smelled it during 30 to 45 minutes?
Hello Thanks for using health care magic, I have gone trough your query in detail and I can understand what you are going through. No these fumes are not toxic. These fumes can create a problme only if you did not have any oxygen in your room. And that too these create problem only for a short period. Ones you are out of that period and are taking ion good air and dont have any problem, then it will not cause any problem to you in the future. Hope I am of help to you. Wish you good health, Dr. Srikanth Reddy MD
