Question
Could a two-year-old baby accidentally swallowing a 7V battery go unnoticed? The X-ray detailed examination said there were no abnormalities, and the ultrasound also didn’t show anything. Now, almost four years have passed, and the baby has shown no discomfort. Are there any other tests that can be done to check for any issues?
Answer
Based on the situation you described, if the baby accidentally swallowed a 7V battery, due to the battery’s corrosive nature, there should have been some reaction. Since both the ultrasound and X-ray detailed examination did not reveal any abnormalities, and the baby has shown no discomfort for nearly four years, it is considered that the baby consumed the battery in a manner that did not cause harm. It is recommended to monitor the situation temporarily and seek medical attention promptly if any discomfort arises. The above suggestions are for this question, and I hope they are helpful to you. Wishing you health!
