    I think you'll be fine.

    See your doctor anyway.

    Christmas lights are safer now but

    they have burnt houses down.

    I would buy new ones.

    an electric marvel can ensue upon touch of a human's physique with any source of voltage severe sufficient to reason sufficient present day circulate in the path of the muscle tissue or hair. The minimum present day a human can experience is known to be a pair of million milliampere (mA). the present would reason tissue harm or traumatic inflammation no count if it is satisfactorily severe. A deadly electric marvel is stated as electrocution. The theory of electric marvel may well be diverse reckoning on the voltage, length, present day, direction taken, frequency, and so on. present day entering the hand has a threshold of theory of approximately 5 to 10 mA (milliampere) for DC and a pair of million to 10 mA for AC at 60 Hz. marvel theory declines with expanding frequency, finally disappearing at frequencies above 15-20 kHz.
