Autumn is the high season for rhinitis . Ms. Li (pseudonym), who lives in Caidian District, Wuhan City, was not careful when using aerosol nasal spray at home. The nozzle at the front of the spray was sucked into the nasal cavity by her and kept "swimming" until the middle section of her right lung was stuck, causing lung infection to . The doctor took out the foreign object after 2 hours of surgery.

52-year-old Ms. Li has been using aerosol rhinitis spray due to rhinitis attacks. According to her, once when spraying the medicine, she was in a hurry to reach the spray pipe into her nasal cavity. Unexpectedly, the sprayed liquid flushed the nozzle away. At this time, she took a deep breath and the nozzle was sucked into her body. She immediately coughed. A few days later, the cough became worse and worse, and even breathed poorly.

The nozzle of the sucked

On October 16, she rushed to the Wusheng Road Campus of Wuhan Fourth Hospital for treatment. Shen Sanying, deputy chief physician of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, introduced that through bronchoscopy , you can see that a cylindrical plastic nozzle blocked the opening of the middle and lower lobe of the patient's right lung. It is expected to be inhaled from the nasal cavity, "swimming" through the main trachea and bronchus, and stuck here. At this time, a large-scale infection has occurred in the right lung, and foreign objects need to be removed as soon as possible.

The doctor found a foreign object through a bronchoscope, but the nozzle was stuck tightly, and the inner wall of the trachea was slippery again. biopsy forceps could not directly clip it out. The doctor took a different approach, first loosening the nozzle from the inner wall of the trachea, then stretched into a tool similar to a net bag, wrapped it up and took it out, and the operation took 2 hours. After the operation, Ms. Li's breathing was much smoother and her cough was relieved. Comparison of the size of the nozzle taken out by

Shen Sanying reminds that patients must carefully read the instructions before using aerosol to avoid accidental aspiration, swallowing of nozzles, etc. At the same time, before spraying each time, try spraying the aerosol into the air. Even aerosol can also prevent the above situation from happening after uniform aerosol.
