Exposure to excessive radiation can lead to acute radiation sickness (ARS), which manifests symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and skin burns. High doses can damage or destroy cells, particularly those in rapidly dividing tissues like bone marrow, leading to immune system impairment and increased susceptibility to infections. Prolonged exposure may also increase the risk of developing cancer and other long-term health effects. The severity of symptoms depends on the dose and duration of exposure.
