Rectal Foreign Body

2020-05-04 11:02:58
While showering I fell on a tube-like object 4-5 in. Panicked, I immediately went to toilet and excreted. I am not sure whether that object is out or not. What should I do in this lockdown situation?

If you fell on a tube like thing, the foreign may have gone in rectum. Most often , it pass out spontaneously. Otherwise you may need proctoscopy by a surgeon

It takes time for the swallowed foreign body to come down and get excreted Eat bananas If you are having problem in passing stools or if you are having vomiting then consult a surgeon Get an X-ray abdomen done
