Viral NeeDoh squishy stress toys are drawing fresh concern after multiple reports of the products bursting open and causing chemical burns. Health officials are now telling families to carefully inspect the condition of these items.
A Connecticut doctor warned that heated versions can cause serious skin damage. One case involved a young girl whose toy split wide open on her legs, forcing a trip to the emergency room. In a separate incident, a 12-year-old boy underwent a skin graft procedure after a toy bought at Lidl loudly exploded without warning.
