Children often insert small objects such as beads, food particles, paper, stones or toys into the ear, nose or throat. These foreign bodies can cause pain, discharge, breathing difficulty, infection or even choking hazards. Safe and timely removal by an ENT specialist prevents complications and ensures quick recovery.
We provide gentle, expert and safe removal of foreign bodies using specialised tools:
Ear Foreign Body Removal: Using microscopes, suction, forceps or hooks to remove beads, insects, cotton or small objects without harming the ear canal or eardrum.
Nasal Foreign Body Removal: Safe extraction of beads, food particles or objects lodged in the nose to relieve blockage, foul smell or breathing difficulty.
Throat Foreign Body Removal: Gentle removal of food pieces, small objects or sharp items stuck in the throat with endoscopic guidance when needed.
Endoscopic Removal: For deep or difficult-to-reach objects in the nose or throat, we use endoscopic tools to ensure complete and safe extraction.
Treatment of Complications: Management of injuries, bleeding, infection or swelling caused by the foreign body or improper attempts at removal at home.
Seek urgent ENT care if your child shows:
Sudden ear pain, hearing loss, discharge or irritation
Foul-smelling nasal discharge, nosebleeds or blocked nose
Coughing, choking, drooling or difficulty swallowing
Breathing difficulty or noisy breathing
Foreign bodies can cause infection, tissue injury or airway obstruction if not removed promptly. Professional removal avoids complications and ensures complete safety for your child.
Simple precautions can prevent such incidents:
Keep small objects, beads and toys out of reach of young children
Avoid giving unsupervised access to nuts, seeds or hard foods in toddlers
Educate children not to put objects in ears/nose and chew food properly
Seek immediate help instead of trying to remove objects at home
