Hello. I just read through your question.
That small amount of acetone is not toxic enough to do any harm. you've done everything correctly. Now you don't need to worry. At most, he may experience some very mild abdominal pain. But nothing more than that.

Hi
Acetone in very small amounts is not dangerous.
Despite its presence in hundreds of common products, the incidence of acetone poisoning is very low. This is because the liver is able to take acetone and break it down into chemicals usable by the body.
The body is able to handle up to 200ml without serious consequences.Oral breathing is helpful for mild ingestion.
