Is 305 VDC can cause after effect

[amohdshk]

last 25th Apr'12. I had a electric shock on right little finger of 305 Vdc for atleast 1 sec. then i had a pain in that for next two days. Is it will cause any after effect.

No one can give you a diagnosis or accurate medical opinion based only on that history and your reported symptoms. Although, the voltage was high, was the current limited? Was there discoloration of the skin? Charring (burning)? Was the skin penetrated? Why was the exposure for a whole second (e.g., where you unable to voluntarily withdraw)?

That said, most references you will find related to electrical shock deal with the immediate respiratory and cardiovascular effects, such as cardiac arrest and fibrillation. You are past that immediate stage.

Local damage to nerves can occur (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8982537), and following such damage, you may experience paresthesia (odd feelings) at the site. A severe, but apparently quite rare complication could be gangrene from thromboangiitis obliterans (

To reiterate, a forum such as this is not the place to get medical advice. My purpose in responding is to illustrate with reference citations the spectrum of possibilities from no measurable effect to quite serious effects. The fact that you have concerns about it leaves only one conclusion: You should seek competent medical advice and have your finger examined.

This is question for medic/doctor (neurologist), not for electronist. If there is damage on finger neuron you can have occasional problems, but I think you will survive. :-D

AC current goes on skin, and under skin dept, and make burnings and damage on surface, and under surface (skin), but DC current make internal damages and internal burnings.
