Chewing gum

2025-09-12 11:35:12
“Three days ago, I accidentally swallowed a chewing gum. Since then, I feel mild one-sided abdominal pain. Gas and stool are passing, sometimes with slight difficulty, sometimes normal. There is no vomiting or bloating. Should I go for an ultrasound/sonography or is this pain due to normal digestion/spasm?”
