A member asked:

Daughter, 11. swallowed ring. xrayed in small intestine after 5 days. went to bed with headache and naseous. no fever. gave motrin. ring related?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely from ring: It's unlikely that her symptoms are related to the ring. However, if she continues to have nausea, vomiting or develops abdominal pain, she should be seen by a doctor right away to ensure that no sort of blockage has occurred, and to check for other causes of her symptoms. A ring should pass without difficulty in most circumstances.
