Hair in intestine

2017-09-11 16:39:29
I doubt that my 6 week old son has swallowed 3 to 4 hair around 5 centimeter each (ADULTS HAIR , NOT HIS OWN HAIR). I concern that those hair will stick to his stomach or intestine in the form of hairball. Kindly answer what to do?

Unless he swallows hair regularly,just 1 episode and 3-4 hairs won't cause any harm. Relax.
