Maybe not too much to worry about at all. It’s either a mix of tin/copper or tin/bismuth if it’s actually LF solder. None of the constituent products are inherently toxic. You are certain it was LF solder?
Was it electronics solder or plumbing solder? Plumbing solder may sometimes have an acid flux which may be of concern. Electronics solder doesn’t use acid flux, it uses rosin flux which is pine based with extra stuff added, maybe alcohols or something. I’d maybe call a poison control center and ask them possibly. They are free in the US and do not lead to police intervention if you call and ask questions.
You absolutely certain it was five grams at any rate? If it was some electronics solder it’s usually on the thinner side so maybe it wasn’t as much as you think.
