My 3 year old son, ate a large chunk (several bites) out of a nerf football. should i take him to the er? what and see if he passes it?

No ER: If he is not vomiting or if he is not having difficulty breathing then there is no need to go to ER. May not be a bad idea to call poison control, although I think this inert substance should not worry you for poisoning
