While cream chargers are generally safe when used correctly, there are potential risks associated with their misuse:
- Inhalation:The primary risk is the inhalation of nitrous oxide gas. Inhaling large amounts of nitrous oxide can lead to serious health consequences, including oxygen deprivation, nerve damage, and even death.
- Burns:Improper handling of cream chargers, such as exposure to extreme temperatures or forceful impact, can lead to burns or frostbite.
- Explosions:In rare cases, cream chargers can explode if they are mishandled or exposed to extreme heat.
