How Long Does The After Effect Of Electric Shock Remain?

hello,I just received an electric shock earlier today when testing equipment. At the start, my left hand was stiff and had a bit of pain in my left arm. After a couple hours, the pain went so did the stiffness. I still have a bit of tingle in my left hand so I was wonder how long are the aftereffects from getting electric shock and what other symptoms could I may get?

Hi welcome to healthcare magic forum,
Don't worry it seems that it was a very less voltage shock, and it will go in a couple of days,but if it would have been a high voltage than it could have taken your life so be careful from next time.

Thanks
