Mumbai: 22-month-old who ingested three batteries saved in time
A 22-month-old girl in Mumbai was rushed to the hospital after vomiting a green liquid. It was discovered that she had swallowed three button-sized objects while playing with electric diyas. One battery was removed through an endoscopy, and medication was given to naturally expel the other two batteries. The girl suffered erosions and ulcers in her stomach due to the chemicals released from the batteries. A study found that children aged 1-3 are most vulnerable to injuries caused by burns, poisoning, and ingestion of foreign objects.
