HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for the child if this is foreign body then this need to be examined first with the ENT surgeon then ENT surgeon would remove this if you tried to remove this then you did the mistake this could disturb the foreign body and pushes this deep inside, better to go and see the ENT, doctor, take care and have nice day,
