1-19157750: A reporter called on 07/13/2009 to report his exposure to an insecticide containing the active ingredient Lambda-cyhalothrin. According to the reporter, earlier on the day of the report he was reading the directions on the label when some of the concentrate spilled onto his knee. He washed his knee off about 30 minutes later. The reporter noted tingling on his knee later in the day. The reporter was advised that dermal exposure may result in a temporary numbness, tingling, itching, or burning sensation. The reporter was also advised that the symptoms should resolve spontaneously within 24 hours. A recommendation was made to fully rinse the skin with running water for 20 minutes and apply vitamin E oil every 4 hours as needed. A recommendation was made to see a health care provider should the signs persist longer than 24 hours. On follow up, the reporter stated that he applied vitamin E oil to the affected area and his signs resolved within 24 hours. No further information was obtained.
