A member asked:

Should i take my 7 year old son to hospital he has just swallowed a one pound coin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes. It is rather: urgent especially if child has throat or chest pain. It is important to determine the location of the coin and evaluate the risk of aspiration. Take care.
