I is not defined as poisoning, but as a heath hazard because of the chemicals used in the concrete, prolonged exposure to this chemicals can cause an allergy type reaction such as discoloration of the skin and rash like redness. depending on the individual it can be light to severe in this case medical attention is needed also it can cause irritation to the throat and lungs by inhaling the dust it can cause shortness of breath and irritate the lungs. There is very little information on the prolonged used of concrete or cement to determine the long term heath hazards.

There is no specific medical condition known as "concrete poisoning." However, exposure to certain chemicals in concrete such as cement dust or other components can cause skin irritation, respiratory problems, or allergic reactions in some individuals. It is important to take proper safety precautions when working with concrete to minimize these risks.
