Yesterday I my husband dropped some paper towel into the toilet and it is jammed now. Is there anyway we can solve this? Thanks for answering.

if you can see it, pull it out. if not, use a plunger.
remember to slap the husband at the end of this drama.

Use a plunger. Most likely your pipe is pretty clogged up too. As a preventive measure, once you unclog the toilet with the plunger, you could use either bleach or toilet flusher fluid (easily purchased at Walmart, etc....) .
Remember to leave the bleach or toilet flusher to sit for awhile before flushing it. Let it sit to break down the build up in the pipes. Good luck.

DO NOT USE A PLUNGER
it will only push the clog deeper into your pipes.
Use / borrow / call a plumber to use a plumber's snake to go down through the toilet, into the drain pipe to dig-out the clog.

I have had similar problems. I used a wire hanger to get it out. Just put a hook at the end of the hanger. You can also get tools especially made for this at hardware stores. However, the hanger worked great for me.

go to your frendly hardware store and ask for a toilet auger its a short toilet snake you crank by hand not exspensive as a plumbing call give it to your husband stand over him as he snakes it out then tell him you will use it on him if he doe's that again.

A plunger, a plumber, a hook or a hand in a glove all work extremely well!!!

I hate to be blunt, but use a plunger.
