Question

My 2yr put a bead in his nose and he ended up shollowing it. this was 7-26-08 it hasn't passsed i'm worried

Answer 1

Take him to the doctor and get an xray.

Answer 2

Unless it was a metal bead i'm sure it wouldn't be too harmful. His body probably broke it down.

Answer 3

My sister did that with corn kernals when she was little but my Mom was able to get them out.  

I would call the doctor about this if you are worried.  I'm not sure how long that would take to pass.

Answer 4

Well, if it slid into his trachea, he would have been coughing his head off.

Are you positive it he didn't pass it in his stool?

I mean, that's quite a bit of poking and checking.

Unless he complains of stomach pains and has problems defecating, it's not likely that a small bead will cause a blockage.

I'd keep my eyes open, but I doubt you have anything to worry about.

He's probably ingested more dirt, dust, grass, insects, and grossness than you'd care to think about already.

My kids have. Ick!
