A member asked:
Can i catch something from my hair touching smeared poop on the bathroom wall and then the hair going in my eye & mouth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very unlikely: Obviously the poop would have to have contained something infectious that was resistant to drying. Ordinary poop will cause no problem. Your ordinary resistance will probably ward off anything that would be a problem. Simply wait it out and seek a doctor's attention only if you develop symptoms like a fever or vomiting, etc.
