A member asked:
I was carriying wood furniture. small part of it got in to my skin. it didn't cause bleeding. do these things contain lead? i am paranoid by lead
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lead is unlikely: unless there is a tiny bit of it in the paint on an old piece of furniture. More helpful would be seeing a mental health professional to learn ways to cope w/anxiety. Peace and good health.
