Do seaweeds sting people

Most seaweeds do not sting people, as they lack stinging cells like those found in certain jellyfish. However, some species, such as certain types of green algae, can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Additionally, seaweeds may harbor small marine organisms, like sea urchins or jellyfish, that can sting if touched. It's always best to be cautious and avoid direct contact with unfamiliar marine plants.
