Patient's question:
A one-and-a-half-year-old baby saw her holding a crystal ball sponge that can expand when soaked while I was washing and brushing. I don't know if she ate it. Is this urgent? If she did, should I wait a few days to carefully observe for any abnormalities? She accidentally spilled it into her two bath tubs. Can it be cleaned off with water? She held it without washing her hands and then put it in her mouth to eat. Is this urgent? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
I am very happy to serve you and hope I can help you. Based on your symptoms and medical history. If it cannot be confirmed that the baby may have ingested something through the digestive system. Parents should closely monitor the baby's physical condition. If the baby is in good physical and emotional condition. Please rest assured. If the condition worsens again. Please take the baby to a professional medical institution for a thorough examination in a timely manner. The above is my advice on this issue. I hope it is helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
