How to handle swallowing bubble gum

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. What should be done if bubblegum is swallowed?

Doctor's answer:

This situation is not something to worry about. Chewing gum and swallowing it does not affect breathing and causes only a slight discomfort in the throat. Swallowed gum in the stomach is not a serious issue and will be excreted through the stool.
Hello, plain yogurt does not contain high nutritional value and is not effective for calcium supplementation. For children needing to supplement calcium, it is recommended to consume more calcium-rich foods, such as seafood. Additionally, regular sun exposure is beneficial.
