Foreign Object In the Tongue.
Posted: 07-06-04 12:09pm

Approx. 10 years ago, my mother was brushing her teeth and the toothbrush bristles came out of the brush and she swallowed the bristles and every since, she has had numerous infections in her mouth. She has been to specialists who tell her they cannot find anything and put her on antibiotics again that only help for the short term. She gags and has constant drainage. Does anyone know of any other resources or imaging techniques for detection of nylon or plastics?
Thank you.
