A Man Accidentally Swallowed A Fish Bone
A fishbone may get stuck in your intestines. There once was an incident when a man accidentally swallowed a small fishbone, not only getting stuck in his intestine but tore a hole in it.

At the time of the incident, the man was a 73-year-old living in Japan. After suddenly feeling severe pain in the lower part of his abdomen, he was brought to the emergency room.

While the man is undergoing the physical exam, he has a slight fever and tenderness across his lower abdomen. The man said that the day before he felt the pain, he had eaten a yellowtail fish.

Yellowtail Amberjack is popular in Japanese cuisine. It is a large fish that is usually prepared as steamed, grilled, and many more.

The CT scan result of the man’s abdomen shows that “a linear, high-density body” punctured his small intestine. To put it simply, there is an object that looked like a small bone was stuck in his intestine.

The doctors found a 2cm long fishbone pierced straight through his small intestine during the surgery. Doctors have to remove part of his small intestine to treat the issue.

The doctors also gave him antibiotics to avoid any possible infections due to having a hole in the bowel.

Kochi Medical School doctors in Nankoku, Japan, say that after the treatment, the man recovered well, and after eight days, he left the hospital.
