What Causes Headache, Nausea And Fatigue After Getting An Electric Shock?

Hello i got an electric shock 1 week ago from a light switch. The current went from my finger, ran up thru my arm and exited at my shoulder. It was intensley painful and the nerve pain in my arm lasted 2 days. (No visible burns on me) I ve had headaches and nausea each day since, but its the intense fatigue that is upsetting me the most, 7 days later and no sign of the fatigue improving yet. Will it improve?

Hello,

I think you need to be physically checked by a doctor for your symptoms after the electrical shock. I believe that the symptoms will improve since they started to get better.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
