A member asked:
Accidentally swallowed a stem or wood piece of a raisin will this cause a bowel obstruction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
not likely: Bowel obstruction from food or other ingested bezoar is rare. A raisin stem is very small and therefore able to navigate most GI systems. If you have abdominal symptoms, okay to start a bowel regimen to manage constipation. Constipation is much more likely to negatively impact your day to day GI tract. Be well.
