Suggest Remedy After Inserting Foreign Object Into Anus

Posted on Tue, 25 Aug 2015

Question: I inserted a golf ball into my anus and I think it was stuck, so I went to the loo and heard a splash, but didnt see the ball in the bowl. Is there any way to check if the ball is still there or not?

Brief Answer:
Please consult emergency room doctor and get X ray if required

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. It is likely that the splash was due to the golf ball coming out.

2. However I can understand the uncertainty over it because you were not able to visualize the ball in the bowl.

3. Please go to your nearest emergency room and get examined clinically and get a X ray if required. A golf ball will always be visible on X ray and there is no need to panic.

Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.

Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.

Regards,
Dr.Vivek
