My child swallowed a foreign object 2 weeks ago. It is still in him. The drs dont know what it is. They said to watch and wait. Yesterday his left eye swelled shut and then last night the right eye did the same thing. Can it be related to the object in his stomach
Hi..... I don't think the swelling of eyes is related to the object that's swallowed. The alternate swelling of eyes could be due to his position during sleep. But if the object swallowed is high in lead content due to its coating it's not good. If its already 1 week then I suggest consultants a pediatric gastroenterologist and getting it removed endoscopically. Regards -
