A member asked:

My 5 year old son said he swallowed a pennie at school! what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

PENNY SWALLOWED: Go to er to find out where the penny is located. The x ray will show the location. If it is already in the stomach, wait for it to be passed out with the stools.If not , it might cause obstruction in the esophagus. Good luck!
