I have seen a lot of stories online of people getting things stuck in there and doctors having to remove it, even items like cucumbers. I get that an item with a highly irregular shape could get stuck. But if it’s something long and rounded, why can people not just poop it out? Is it because the item isn’t soft enough?
Every patient I’ve had in the ER just slipped and fell on it. Crazy odds. Yeah, our bodies can’t push everything out whether because of size, shape, or integrity. I think the worst was the guy who had peeled ginger that got stuck. BDSM thing for him, used to be a form of torture. He was in a lot of pain and it took a while to get him to endoscopy.
