Electric shock
I live in a hostel. Today while bathing the water tank got emptied. I switched on the motor with my hands but I got electric shock. The switch board of the motor was torn/loose. However there is no burning of my hands. I have heard that electric shock damage the brain. Will anything happen to my brain? Will my brain get damaged because of the electric shock?
