A member asked:

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Med evaluation: Although small items often pass through the GI track without difficulty (like a penny), an uncapped barbell can get caught in & even tear tissue. Because you are now experiencing abdominal pain - encourage you to be seen at the emergency room.
