You should seek immediate medical care for your child.Swallowing sharp glass poses risks of internal tissue injury.Go to the nearest emergency department for an evaluation.Do not induce vomiting as it causes further tearing.Watch for drooling, vomiting, coughing, or stomach pain.

If your baby may have swallowed even a small piece of glass, it should not be ignored. Sharp objects can injure the mouth, food pipe, stomach, or intestines. Since you are not sure whether she swallowed it, I recommend taking her to the nearest emergency department or pediatrician as soon as possible for examination. An X-ray may be advised depending on the type of glass and the doctor’s assessment.
Do not induce vomiting or give bulky foods (such as banana or bread) to try to push it down.
