Suggest Treatment For Accidental Ingestion Of Porcelain
Question: I swallowed two pieces of broken china plate, while eating. I think that they were smaller than a pea. This was about 90 minutes ago. I am 70. I have no digestive problems. I don't seem to be feeling any adverse effects. Thanks!
Brief Answer:
Don't Worry..Just watch for any abdominal complaints over next 24 hrs !!
Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM.
Read your facts of query and understood your health concerns.
Nothing Specific needs to be done!!
Just be watchful for any abdominal complaints as precaution only, over next 18-24 hrs.
These 2 china plate pieces shall pass unevenfully and naturally without causing any problems.
As the size is smaller than pea, no obstructive/ digestive complaints would arise from these 2 broken china plate pieces.
Welcome for any more query in this regard.
Good Day!!
