How can a coin be smoothly expelled from a 4-year-old child's abdomen?

Patient's question:

Accidentally swallowed a 1-yuan coin four days ago and it hasn't passed yet. Test results: The coin is currently in the right small intestine of the abdomen. How can it be passed?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the medical history, it can be determined that your child has ingested a foreign object in the digestive tract. If the X-ray examination shows that it has not caused any adverse effects, I can share with you a folk remedy that I have used before, which can also be considered a dietary approach.
Go to the market and buy a bunch of chives, cut them into small pieces about 2 centimeters long, and stir-fry them like vegetables, adding salt before serving to your child. Encourage them to eat a bit more. Chives are rich in fiber and are not easily absorbed in the human digestive system. They form clumps in the digestive tract, encapsulating the coin, and are eventually excreted from the body in the form of feces.
