Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20160712-C0CF1-2147416965. Severity: Injury, First Aid Received by Non-Medical Professional. Matched catalog product: Samsung S7. Incident: I plugged my samsung phone up to the cord. I went to sleep for a bit. I woke up because my arm was hurting only to realize that I fell asleep with my arm on the cord right at the part that plugs into my phone. I then realized that it burned my arm giving me a blister. How can something that children use everyday be so dangerous?
