A member asked:
I slept with naphthalene balls . there were 2 balls . will it cause cancer for me now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That is likely not enough of an exposure to cause you to have cancer now. But, you probably should not make a habit of doing this-I am unsure what the benefit of sleeping with naphthalene balls would be but it is probably not a good idea long-term. Good luck to you!
