Question
My baby accidentally ate a bottle of bubble gum; the bottle was the size of xylitol; what should I do? Previous rescue situation and effect: Not treated; ate about 6 hours ago; concerned about how to assist: What should I do? Will there be any problems? What kind of detailed examination should be done?
Answer
The child is two years old and has the symptoms of accidentally eating a bottle of bubble gum. If it hasn’t caused any blockage, it’s generally not a big deal. Now, you should give the child more fiber-rich foods. Advice: From now on, always be careful not to give your child such things to eat. Make sure to clean up properly and observe the child more closely for a few days. If there are no signs of discomfort, everything is fine.
