If he is not having any symptoms you should call his pediatrician. How big was the wrapper? Is he eating and drinking normally? If so, keep him hydrated and if it is a small piece, it will pass. Best of luck to you!

The best thing would be to take him to an urgent care or emergency room, or Physician Hwy do a walk and visit to evaluate diagnose and treat him. An x-ray could show the location of the wrapper paper usually
