I'm feeling pretty worried because my 6-month-old baby accidentally got a piece of paper in his mouth. I managed to get some of it out, but I'm not sure if he swallowed the rest or if it's still in there. What should I do now? Is there a chance it could cause any harm or should I just keep an eye on him for any symptoms?

Minors ingesting minuscule paper pass them through stools. If the child has any sort of choking, gagging, fast breathing please make sure to go to the local paediatrician.

Adenoidectomy is a safe procedure in the pediatric population and leads to excellent outcomes. Adverse events are rare, and hospitalization is uncommon. Children with sleep disturbance from nasal airway obstruction, ear disease, or chronic rhinosinusitis are the best operative candidates for this procedure.

I've been having this really uncomfortable itching around my anus at night, and it's been driving me crazy because it's making me lose out on sleep. I even noticed some white worms coming from there but only at night. It's a bit concerning because I feel like I need to go to the toilet repeatedly. What could this be? Should I be worried?
