What Are The Repercussions Of Accidental Ingestion Of Broken Plastic Piece?
Hie Doctor, i accidentally swallowed a plastic bottle cap like the ones on coke pet bottles. This happened on 19 December 2016. Any serious threat to my life? I have been feeling stomach ache & a doctor got me xray but said couldnt see any foreign body & that the thing should have passed in my stool. That think is big & definately i should have felt it.
It should pass in your stool in a few days so I guess we should wait and watch for it. Of your stomach pain worsens you should contact the doctor ASAP.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
