Patient's question:
4 cents old boy accidentally ingested eyeliner, not sure if he swallowed it. He has already been rinsed out his mouth. Checked his throat and didn't see any eyeliner residue. Is this still a problem?Doctor's answer:
Hello! If the child accidentally eats a very small amount, there is no major problem. Drinking more water can be fine. If a larger amount is ingested, gastric lavage may be necessary. Currently, it is unknown whether the child has swallowed it, and they have already been given mouthwash. It is recommended to wait and see how the child's condition develops. Encourage the child to drink more water. If the child shows any abnormalities, seek medical attention promptly. In the future, parents should take better care of the child.
