    Judging by what you said, two words, it's fine.

    Mercury is the only liquid metal. Its vapor is toxic, and sprinkling sulfur powder can treat liquid sulfur into non-toxic compounds, and it is generally okay to deal with it in time to avoid inhaling mercury vapor.

    Mercury itself is not toxic, but it is toxic when it is inhaled into the body after it volatilizes.

    Therefore, there will be no problem in disposing of the spilled mercury as soon as possible, and if you need to open the window for ventilation for a few hours to quickly disperse the volatile gases. Don't worry too much.

    In addition, it is best to store the collected scattered mercury and broken glass in a sturdy container outside the house, as it will evaporate on its own, so never leave it at home.

It's okay, there is very little mercury in the mercury thermometer, and it's okay if it doesn't enter the human body.

Mercury is highly toxic, so clean it up, don't touch it with your hands, and wash your hands.

Thinking too much! Even if I swallowed all the mercury in the thermometer, it wasn't so fast.

Do not touch it directly with your hands. Put on plastic gloves, transfer the mercury to a container with a straw or cardboard roll, seal it, and throw it away. The bed should be ventilated indoors, the sofa should not be washed (insoluble in water and will pollute the washing machine), and it should be exposed to the sun.
