Good evening, folks. My friend had mercury intoxication. Among other things, he had mercury eretism. I really don’t know what the meaning of this is. Can anyone be so kind to help me with this? I have never heard about this term before. I hope someone will answer this. Bye folks!
Hi, there. Mercury erethism or erethism mercurialis is common for people who work with mercury. This is a condition with excessive shyness, social phobia and timidity. Have you noticed these characteristic with your friend lately? You should know if you are close friends. I am not sure about treating this condition. I guess avoiding working with mercury is the first thing. I am sorry I cannot fill you in with details. Good luck with all this! Bye!
