Ate rat contamination food

2026-08-03 16:33:30
I ate roasted kala chana, later discovered the package has a hole which is carefully taped by the seller, seems like it's eaten by rats. I have eaten 2/3 handful of Channa from the same side on each days for two days in where there is the hole. My mother also ate 1 handful on it. What should I do now? Will it cause issues? Is Any prevention or anything needed.

Now you have already consumed it. Just wait and watch. If no problem develops like fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea,  any one or more of these symptoms  then no issue. But be careful in future.

Don't panic. Watch for any symptoms. If you are fine no need to take any medicine.
