Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
After running my dishwasher I noticed a bad smell. when I opened it a ton of smoke came out and the source was a plastic lid that had melted from the heat of the dishwasher. A ton of smoke and smell was released into my home but we removed the lid and the smoke finally cleared. An hour later I still smell the burnt plastic. Is this bad for us?
