What Causes Presence Of Small And Sharp Object In My Anus?
Question: hi ...i think a small object has got inside my anus.. m not feeling any kind of pain.i have even passed out stool 2 times after that.. but its normal and m not getting any kind of pain. the object small and not sharp...is there any risk with it or it will be passed out wih the stool??plz help me
Brief Answer:
Better to get examine done
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I went through your query and understood your concerns.
In many a times small objects do come out with stool with out harming much. As you have mentioned its not a sharp object, less likely to cause any injury to rectum. But better to get examination done once to confirm the object has passed out.
For my patients with similar complaints I would do examination or confirm that object has expelled out with imaging procedure like X - ray.
Hope I answered your query. Feel free to ask further related query.
Wish you a good health.

Brief Answer:
No harm from round edged object
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.
Ya, most of the small objects do get passed out with stool and no harm from round ended objects.
Self examination is not preferred one, mostly the object would have already passed out with stool.
There is 99% chance of expelling object out with bowel movement with out any harm .
Very rarely object can get stuck and act as foreign substances and source of infection.

Hi mam..... if the object is not passed out yet then will it show any symptoms??if yes then what kind of symptoms??and what can i try at home to get it out??
Brief Answer:
Pain abdomen, changes in bowel movement
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.
Yes, if not yet passed out and causing some damage to intestine , then definitely it will produce symptoms like pain abdomen, vomiting, changes in stool frequency.
In your home you can't do much, you can take stool softener which helps for easy movement if stool.

Brief Answer:
Needs evaluation by physician
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.
Your symptoms are suggestive of inflammation of rectum. Foregin body could be a reason for this. So better to get it examined in a hospital and treated.
Usually I don't prefer any home based treatment as it is not safe.

How can i get examined?? like xray or any other ways are there?? will it be painful?? and if it is there then will it need a surgery or is there any life risk for me?? Please confirm me as m scared
Brief Answer:
Imaging studies
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for follow up query.
Presence of Foregin substance in body results in inflammation. Removal of foreign body is the best solution for it.
For my patients with similar complaints, first I would like do physical examination and depending on examination findings , I advice them on investigations like ultrasound abdomen or imaging methods to locate Foregin body first. Depending on position of foregein body method of removal varies. If it is near to anus, can be removed through anal opening. Other position needs further evaluation. Surgery may be required rarely.
Imaging procedures like ultrasound scan is not painful. So not to worry. Consult doctor and get evaluated further.
