<human>: I am traveling and got a small half second electric shock on my left hand. The shock was felt mainly in my fingers though my forearm did tighten.Where I am traveling there is very limited ( potentially none ) medical services. It was about 2 hours ago, I was a bit shaken but feel fine. My question is about the shock disrupting my hearts rhythm. It feels fine but I am not sure what symptoms I should be looking for.My pulse feels strong and even at around 58bpm. How long after the shock is there any risk.Appreciate you answerLuke
<bot>: Hi, If shock was mild no damage is done. What I guess from your description, there is a very low probability of any problem occurring after this. So it doesn't looks like a matter of worry. Shock does disrupt heart rhythm but only during the period when shock was passing through body, once it has already passed and no damage done, I think you are safe. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
