When Pham Quoc Hien - 6 years old, in Tan Phu, Ho Chi Minh City - had seizures, his parents took hard objects and put them into his mouth so that he could not bite his tongue. As a result, one of his teeth was "missing". This tooth has come "guest" in his left lung for more than 10 days without anyone knowing.
Inpatient in the Department of Otolaryngology Pediatric Hospital I (Photo: VNE) After that, Hien was brought to the neurology department at the Children's Hospital I. Here, my father asked the doctor, I don't know where my teeth are broken when my child has a seizure, which could fall into my body because I can't find it outside. Neuropsychiatrists transfer him to the Otolaryngology Department to examine foreign bodies in the airway.
Although the child has no symptoms of ENT, the doctor still does an endoscopy to find the tooth. They had to take X-rays, endoscopy up to 3 times to find out in the left lung. At this time, the broken tooth made the lungs swell and pus.
According to the doctor of the Department of ENT and Dang Hoang Son Children's Hospital, this is the first time someone with epilepsy has broken a tooth and falls into the lungs. Right lung slopes, horizontal left lung, normal object will fall into the right lung. But in this case, the foreign object fell back into the left lung, which surprised the doctor.
Doctors believe that, when a child has seizures caused by epilepsy, open the button of clothes for comfort, put the child in the most comfortable position. If you see your baby breathing evenly, without bleeding, tight teeth are okay. Just follow the situation, if the child has a prolonged seizure, he should be taken to the hospital. Absolutely do not pry the hard teeth between the teeth, do not squeeze the lemon into the baby's mouth to prevent seizures in a traditional way. This can cause children to choke, drop lemon seeds or other objects into their lungs, causing swelling, inflammation or pus in their lungs. Such cases of pneumonia are difficult to find the cause.
