Suggest Ways To Remove Foreign Object Stuck In The Rectum
Question: I got a piece of plastic stuck in my butt from the end of a razor about the size od my tumb nail And cant get it out. Will i pass this?
Brief Answer:
Followup.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for the query.
It is possible that the plastic may be lodged in the wall of your rectum. it may not move without being surgically assessed.
I would recommend that you see a gastroenterologist or general surgeon who can remove the plastic with a minor procedure called sigmoidoscopy.
I would not encourage you to manually try to remove the plastic because you could inadvertently push it deeper Into the rectim.
Thanks again for the query.
Sincerely,
