Electric shock when handling switch
I got an electric shock while I touched the bathroom light switch with wet hands. I know that we should not touch electric switch with wet hand but that day it missed my mind. Is the shock harmful? I have got on internet that electric shock harms the brain. Will the electric shock harm my brain and nerves?

Just one shock doesn't usually cause any permanent damage to the nervous system. If you do not have any symptoms, you need not worry. Best regards.
