One of my sogs has severe pica and found glass on the floor. Even he did not swallow it. It was a tiny piece and he spit it out. |
I asked the soft tissue surgeon at A&M today and he suggested the above if there are small pieces....bread and soft foods. For large pieces of glass, they can go in and remove them with a scope.
