The incident happened two days before my daughter's second birthday. She always wanted to record this incident, both for herself and others. Let more people see it, hoping that such things can happen less.
Since the child can crawl, I have been very careful about small things. Pack it in time and place it in a place that your child cannot reach. That day was an accident, and it was because I didn't do my best. My brother rummaged through the cabinets in the room and found a box of various buttons. When I saw it, I had almost thrown it away. Looking at the little things scattered all over the floor, I quickly packed them up and told my brother not to play with these little things for my sister to wait for me to put them in my mouth. The ones on the ground were cleaned up and checked them. Then I played in the room as usual. After a while, my mother took my sister to the room, and my brother took my sister to the bed to play. My mother and I were also sitting on the bed chatting. I don’t know when my daughter touched a small button on the bed and held it in her hand to play. She said, “Look, one button,” and then she laughed and made a gesture to stuff it into her mouth. When I was about to ask my mother to stop her quickly, she stuffed it to her nose.
I was immediately panicked. My mother pinched the upper part of her nose and asked her to blow it out. We also acted like blowing, but she just didn't learn and laughed! My mother pinched it, and I hurriedly searched through the boxes and cabinets to find tweezers, because I was anxious and could not find it after rummaging on it several times. I saw the button getting deeper and deeper, and I couldn't see it in the end.
I kept trying to get it out for her because I didn’t find the slender tweezers and couldn’t start with other tools. The hand couldn't bend it out, so I could only watch the buttons go in from behind. After the button was in, the child felt no discomfort or anything unusual. At least there was no situation where foreign objects in my mind entered the trachea, and she did not cry. My brother was scared to death by me, and I said, "Look, you threw the little thing everywhere. My sister picked it up and stuffed it into her nose. Now she can't come out anymore. I want to see the doctor." My brother cried when he heard that he was going to see the doctor. My sister was watching her crying with an innocent look on her face. [Shan] I was so anxious that she was still laughing there.
I observed for a while and found that there was nothing unusual about her. I was lucky enough to think that the foreign object had already reached her stomach. But I was worried that the foreign object had gone away. Although it was already half past ten, I insisted on going to the hospital to take a look. I was going to ride a motorcycle to our town. Later I learned that the medical facilities in the town were relatively old and there were no x-ray laryngoscopes at all, so I could only go to the city. My mother found an uncle with a private car in the village, called him to help, and he took us to the city. My sister was very excited and kept talking and laughing with her brother, and told me that the button was stuffed into her nose. Looking at her innocent smiling face, I was so amused and crying. I kept telling her that the buttons are now stuffed into her nose, and we have to go to the hospital to find a doctor before we can take them out. She said well-behavedly. It took about 40 minutes to go to the city. My brother fell asleep while on the way, and my sister was still very excited. I always pay attention to her every move. It was finally here when I was about to feel dizzy.
Get off the car and head straight to the emergency room. Thanks to that uncle, my mother and I were not familiar with the hospital and bumped around like headless flies. With an uncle leading the way, it is much more worry-free. I explained the situation to the doctor. The doctor looked at it with professional equipment and said that the button was still inside the nasal cavity and did not enter the stomach. When I heard the doctor say that, I was very glad at that time, and I was glad that I did not try to save trouble and did not rely on my own judgment to draw conclusions. Fortunately, I am worried. I can't imagine the consequences of the button still not falling in the nasal cavity... The doctor issued a bill and paid the fee to perform the foreign object removal surgery. I held my very good daughter and prepared to take out the foreign object. She looked at the doctor without crying or refusing, but the doctor cried because of discomfort when he stuffed a cotton swab on her nose. I kept comforting her: Be good, the doctor will help you take out the button. She kept saying "ok".
The doctor started trying several times and kept muttering there, why did it work so deeply? What's wrong now?I heard him muttering, my heart twitching in my throat while hugging my daughter, and I didn't dare to move. My mother and son stood by without making any sound, and I could only hear the sound of the doctor holding the equipment. I was thinking about the worst result in my mind. I was afraid that I needed surgery or something, so I thought too much. The doctor looked at the lamp again, took the nose plug, picked up the tweezers and put them down, and then used the tweezers for a while, then took something to let my sister open her mouth and pressed it. After almost a century, the doctor looked at his nose and said that he should go down, and it was in his stomach. I asked the doctor if I needed to take a video to see if it was really in my stomach. The doctor said that because it was plastic, it might not be able to see clearly. The baby did not choke, there was nothing unusual, and there was no button in the nose. It should be that it was in my stomach. Then she fed some water to let her swallow.
Let me observe the poop for the past two days, and after being discharged, it is basically sure that it is fine. The daughter was very quiet during the removal operation, and she didn't cry and refused to let the doctor see her. She was very happy after taking it home. She told her not to put the little thing in her nose and mouth in the future and said yes. She would say she wanted to see the doctor and let the doctor take it. On the way back, I looked at the two sleeping little guys in my arms and suddenly burst into tears. Children’s health is the greatest blessing, and using money is a trivial matter. When I got home, I was already a little bit, and after hearing the doctor's words, the big rock in my heart finally fell. Finally, I waited for her poop on the afternoon of the third day of the incident. I breathed a sigh of relief when I looked at the button attached to the poop.
As the child grows up, he has to go through many parenting problems. Especially in children's oral and exploration periods, they are very interested in anything and want to play with them in their hands and put them in their mouths to taste them. What we have to do is to keep these tiny things away as far as possible, such as nuts, beads, coins, buttons, tiny screws, thumbtacks, iron absorbers, electronic batteries, and removable toys. If you have to come into contact with small toys, you must accompany your parents. If you unfortunately encounter foreign objects in the ear, nose and throat, you must not be careless and seek professional help if you cannot solve the problem. The doctor will have a solution. Never be lucky when raising children. It is most important to be careful before they happen. hopes that all children will grow up healthily and happily.
