A member asked:
My son burnt some plastic in a non-stick pan. i got most of it off. the pan is basically clean only a few small specks. can this hurt you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: It would be ideal to get all the plastic out...You may try heating some water in the pan and boiling it to soften what is left and get it off. The body can detox even if some things get in...I appreciate your concern. It is a great question.
