Help! Dice in the nose!


This is a mother (and father's) nightmare. A dice (measuring 0.5cm3) pushed into the right nostril. If any of you get into such trouble, digging it out with some instrument may prove to be more damaging. All I did was ....

1. Use a nasal speculum to open the passage
2. Occlude the opposite nares by pressing onto it from the side
3. Ask the child to blow his nose (several times)

If that doesn't work, the child is better off with an ENT specialist!
