Hello I was eating French fries and noticed I may have swoalled my plastic tongue ring ball but i didnt its stuck in the back of my throat and Ive been tilting my head back and drinking fluids but I dont know if I should be worried and go to the ER. what should I do ?
You have swallowed plastic tongue ring ball it means that its in your stomach and not in your airways and trachea. It's a good thing. If you are not having any respiratory symptoms like difficulty in breathing, cough, blood in cough or airway irritation, you can wait for 2 days during which the ball will pass in stool. Monitor your stool for this. Meanwhile, if you have severe abdominal pain, vomiting consult the doctor.
