So I had salad for dinner tonight and towards the end of dinner I noticed it had somthing crunchy in it. So for the first two bites I just chewed it up and swollowed it, but on the third bite I decided to spit it out and there it was a small peice of glass. So I went over checked and the salad dressing container had cracked and I guess some glass broke off on the inside. So what I know is I had 2 or 3 bites with glass in it. I chewed my food pretty thoroughly so the peices were probaly extremely small, but I'm still a little worried. It didn't cut me going down because when I rinsed my mouth and spit there is no blood. It's been probaly 2 hours and I feel fine. So should I be worried or not ? Any info will help I googled it, but that wasn't much help.
 
it would depend on how small you chewed the pieces.
If there are any sharp edges they can pierce the stomach or intestines.
To small(like powder) and it can clog the kidneys.

smaller than a pinky nail should be ok.
 
You should know if there is any damage by tomorrow, when you take a dump.
Then you will probably feel it.
If you are lucky, it will only "hurt for a little while"......(where have I heard that before)
At any rate, you will live.....
 
I'm no doctor, but I play one on T.V. I think that you'll be okay. Every see the guy that takes light bulbs and eats them like apples?
 
ah your fine

Yeah, other than the possibility of bleeding out internally or going septic, you're probably fine. I'd go for a ride and try to forget it.











I have no idea and I'm just being a smart-ass. I really hope that you're fine. Maybe flush it out?

Well I'm still here and feel fine. I was little worried for while, but I think it's fine. I guess we will know by about 6pm tomorrow when it makes it's exit.

There is a Frenchman who has made his career eating everything from a wineflute to a complete propeller driven airplane. You'll probably be okay, besides glass doesn't show up on X-rays so there is very little that can be done for you.
 
Have fun passing it.

Also I am no Doctor...but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once.
 
I swallowed thin piece of glass from beer bottle, about an inch long, like half of the bottle neck in circumference.
That what doctor said I should do. Eeat a lot of soft white bread, no liquids. You will be just fine.

I passed it , just fine in 48 hours. Fun part was to make sure it`s out. So... I had to check every dump I took and make sure it`s in there..

When you (hope) it makes its exit...best scenario.  BTW, is your insurance up to date?

 On the good news side, as a child my daughter swallowed a dime and passed it ok but of course it had no sharp edges.  Eat a bowl of chili to aid it journey thru the intestines.
