That story brings back fond memories. You would be seriously shocked at some of the things we pulled out of kids noses and ears when I worked pediatrics:D |
My BIL stuck a pinto bean up his nose...swelled so big they needed the MD... |
There's a surgical doctor at Boston Children's Hospital that has a display case of every weird item he has removed from children over the past years. It is REALLY shocking to look at!! Some of the things make you think "how the hek?" |
Oh how funny, I guess next time they will believe his stories. Lately, my allergies have made me feel like I have a coffee machine stuck up my nose! |
Last summer my nephew, about 2 1/2 then, complained off & on that he had a bead in his ear. He would only complain when it was "convenient" for him, bedtime, bath, etc. He is known for having a HUGE imagination, he's accused people of things that weren't even there at the time.:rolleyes: So my sister was hesitant & looked in his ears with a light several times & saw nothing. Finally they took him to the Peds. who sent them to the ER....he had a bead resting on his ear drum! Luckily they could just pull it out, otherwise it would've been surgery the next day! |
My grandson swallowed a penny when he was 5...now he is teased by his grandpa sometimes...he jingles the coins in his pockets and asks Ty if he is hungry...Ty hates to be reminded...he was so upset and wanted it out... |
OMG what a cute thread! It so brought back memories of my youngest brother. Mom had to take him to the ER one night to have a TOOTH extracted from his EAR! lol. His tooth had fallen out and he was going to put it under his pillow for the tooth fairy. But he was engrossed in watching something on TV so while laying on the floor watching his show, he set the tooth in his ear so he wouldn't lose it. Needless to say when he tried to retrieve it, it just dropped further into his ear canal. So off to the ER for him! |

Ann, that is funny. How old is your nephew? Kids do the darndest things. When my grandson was little, I think around 3, twice he swallowed a dime and it got stuck in his windpipe. The doctors kept misdiagnosing the problem and finally after a week or so they did an x-ray and that is when they saw the dime. The second time it happened the doctors were on the wrong track too until my daughter told them it might be another dime and sure enough it was. He was really lucky he didn't choke to death. |
