According to the Hong Kong media South China Morning Post, Xiaoma (23), a man from Xian, Shaanxi Province in northern China, has recently suffered from sneezing, stuffy nose, and constant runny nose.
He was treated with traditional Chinese medicine, but when it didn't work, he was tested at Xi'an Gao Xin Hospital.
Medical staff who diagnosed allergic rhinitis told him that foreign substances were visible in the nasal cavity.
When I did the nasal endoscopy again, there was a die in my nose.
"I saw a white mass covered with secretions, and when I took it out, it was a 2cm dice," the medical staff explained. "It was partially corroded because it was embedded in the nasal cavity for a long time."
The die was located below the nasal cavity and caused damage to the nasal mucosa.
He estimated that the dice may have accidentally entered the nose at the age of three or four, but it is unclear how it happened.
The dice were attached to the surrounding tissues for a long time, so it was not easy to remove them. Fortunately, the dice were successfully removed through surgery.
The medical staff said, "Parents should pay attention to children's inhalation of nasal foreign substances. If foreign substances pass through the laryngeal cavity or airway, asphyxiation can be life-threatening." he warned.
Netizens are saying they are 23 years old, but it's been 20 years since the dice was stuck in their nose? Was his nostrils that big at the age of three?". 'It's amazing that you've lived with it for 20 years'',"Joking or making mistakes, foreign substances in children's noses can often happen" posted comments such as.
