A member asked:
I accidentally swallowed a small tumbled amethyst gemstone. will my stomach take care of it fine without a doctor or do i need one?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It will pass: It should pass out of your system in 3-5 days without any problems. You can eat stewed okra and the material will form a soft case around the rock and help it pass though your system.However, it should pass with no effort on your part.
