Is Saffron Advisable For A 11 Month Old Baby?
Can i give saffron to my 11 mth old baby girl? She swallowed a computer battery which got stuck in her throat and remained there. It was removed after 6 hours but the area of contact was black and lots of rust had to be removed. The battery was very corroded. We now hear a rattling when she breathes. She can swallow. We were told that there were ulcers at the site of contact.

dear user, thanks for your query.
battery is alkaline and can cause corrosion in gut mucosa.
these ulcer may be heal without any problem or may cause stricture which may cause difficulty in swallowing.
i suggest you to use only non irritant food until complete healing. saffron is not harmful and can be given.
