Adolescents and youngsters who add tobacco agriculture can and do experience nicotine toxicity while harvesting, curing and handling the tobacco plant in bulk quantities. It’s called “green tobacco sickness” and it happens more frequently in countries with lower agricultural safety standards and higher child labor rates. Most tobacco is grown in countries like that, but it also can happen here within the US.
It’s possible for a person of any age to absorb nicotine and experience toxicity while handling vape juice, or the liquid or salts content of other electronic nicotine deliver systems. That’s why companies that manufacter these consumer products have this type of dress code:

You can also absorb too much nicotine into your skin if you cut open a nicotine patch and get too much of that oil directly on your skin. Many people think they are gaming the system by cutting 21mg patchess in half, to get a 14 mg dose, but that’s not what happens. You either spill the liquid contents and get the whole 21 mg all at once, or else the patch dries out and you get next to nothing.
But you are unlikely to get much, if any, nicotine absorbed into your skin by handling cigarettes. For one thing, you are not making direct contact with the tobacco as it is wrapped in paper. Also the tobacco is dry and there is no liquid base for the nicotine to be absorbed transdermally.
