A member asked:
Cut myself using "sticker remover". skin healed but possible got some liquid in open wound. could this have adverse effects (mutagenic/carcinogenic)?

Likely ok: Hi YPope, I think likely you'll be ok. I would check the ingredients of the sticker remover to see if there are any harmful components - most of the time these products are non-toxic. Very shallow foreign objects will be "grown/pushed" out of the skin layer over time. Deeper foreign objects will get "walled off" and you may feel a hard lump under your skin. Hope this helps!
