Breathing high levels of an inorganic form of arsenic can cause a sore throat / irritated lung. Ingestion of high levels of inorganic arsenic can cause cancer, liver disease, coma, and even it could be life-threatening. If inhaled or ingested in low amounts, it can cause nausea, vomiting, reduced production of red and white blood cells, damage to blood vessels, and a sensation in the hands and feet. It may also lead to skin darkening and redness and swelling on the body.
