I swallowed my tongue ring. How do I make it come out?

Question

I swallowed the long piece of my tongue ring. I'm afraid that it could be dangerous. I wanted it come out and will not replace it.

Please help.... thanks...

Answer 1

poo it out.

eat something bready so that it will form around it so that it won't stab you as you digest it.

Answer 2

Those rings are fitted with those, say, anchors (or spikes, if you will) to ensure of course the ring stays 'anchored to the tongue.

The stomach and colon are constantly in motion through a dynamic called peristalsis, that occurs throughout the body in great measure, which are neuro-muscular undulations and, in this instance, which ensure that all within the great line of your intestine keep things moving and well toned and fit.

The linings of the intestine in part comprise the mucosa which additionally are nature's own structure that helps perform many functions.

Above all and the very first advice anyone could well give you is to obtain medical attention, for you do not want the 'ring' to lacerate the inner lining or disturbed the mucosa.

The sure-fire way so that you might allay worry is to again, seek medical advice. Something as apparently minor as swallowing that ring can effect lesser conditions that mount, such as some sort of inflammation or bleeding and in turn can weaken you. Such can compound into a cumulative effect on all systems of your body.

So, do go see a doctor -- to be absolutely sure! -- and if you are in any inner doubts, which I might add you should doubt, then follow that inner nudge, for while you might feel fine outwardly, damage may be occuring without your knowledge.

You are responsible for your body and health. It is your Temple -- honor it.

Here is what it says:
3. It can go down the wrong way.

The barbell can come un-screwed and wind up in a lung. (If you're lucky it can be removed by passing a bronchoscope down your throat, avoiding chest surgery.) Here's a case.
Going down the other way isn't necessarily great, either. The ball end should pass through harmlessly if swallowed. However the long part would carry the risk of lodging or causing internal tears in the intestine.

Answer 4

I'd say be sure to "watch" for the ring in your bowel movements. Unless it get's lodged somewhere, it will come out. Why not take a good dose of Milk of Magnesia and up your fluids to help it along. Lots of people swallow teeth and coins, and they all come out ok. Godloveya.

Answer 5

By this time it would have seen the light of the day and reflected. Makes both ends busy these days our rings.Give a ring to doctor.

Answer 6

It will come out naturally enough, whether you want it back after the journey its on is a differnt question. Nothing to worry about unless you get tummy pains then seek medical aid

Answer 7

ive swallowed many of mine. As long as you dont aspirate it your fine. It will come out just like everything else

Answer 8

Its not going to hurt you, it will come out the other end. Its really not worth diging through your own poo to find it, buy a new one and move on

Answer 9

Increase your fiber intake. Fiber gives feces its bulk and will aid in pushing the ring through your digestive system and ease it coming out your anus.

Answer 10

You just have to wait for it to pass through your system really, they're only small things. Like pennies. This too will pass through!

Answer 11

the whole thing? if just the ball its not a big deal if the whole thing, check ur poop if notout in a few days head to ur doctor.....good luck
