Which of the following is NOT a symptom of pesticide poisoning?

  1. Victim becomes rigid and cold

  2. Excessive sweating

  3. Nausea and vomiting

  4. Dizziness and confusion

The correct answer is: Victim becomes rigid and cold

In the context of pesticide poisoning, the symptoms typically associated with exposure include excessive sweating, nausea and vomiting, and dizziness and confusion. Each of these symptoms can arise due to the toxic effects of pesticides on the body, impacting the nervous system or causing gastrointestinal distress. The symptom of a victim becoming rigid and cold, on the other hand, is not commonly linked to pesticide poisoning. A cold and rigid body may indicate more severe conditions, such as exposure to extreme environmental factors or death, rather than typical acute poisoning from pesticides. This distinction helps clarify why this symptom does not belong to the standard profile of pesticide exposure reactions. Understanding these patterns is crucial for recognizing and responding to pesticide poisoning effectively.
