Placed Tobacco In Plastic Bag, Plastic Melted, Smoked The Cigarette Unknowingly. Will I Have Brain Damage Form This?
I left my rolling tobacco that was inside of a plastic ziplock type bag in my very hot car all day, it was 110 degrees out and extremely hot in my car. The plastic from the ziplock bag melted into the tobacco but I did not know at the time and ended up smoking some of it in my rolled cigarette. Will I be OK or is the plastic from the ziplock type bag toxic? Will I have any brain damage or neurological damage from this? Thank you for your help..

Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic.
I have gone through your history.
It is less likely to have brain damage or neurological deficit arising from this incidence .
But tobacco itself can damage brain and its function in many ways.
So avoid smoking in any form.
Thanks.
