health effects of arsenic
Arsenic exposure can harm your health, mainly affecting your skin, lungs, and internal organs. Short-term exposure may cause nausea, vomiting, and skin rashes. Long-term exposure increases the risk of skin lesions, cancer (especially skin, lung, and bladder), and can damage vital organs like the liver and kidneys. It can also weaken your immune system and cause digestive issues. Arsenic is often found in contaminated water and soil, so reducing exposure is important for overall health and preventing serious illnesses.
