CHINESE MAN HAD STOMACH PAINS, DOCTORS REMOVE TOOTHBRUSH

A 64-year-old Chinese man who felt a strange sensation in his stomach and went to a doctor was shocked to discover that a toothbrush had been stuck in his intestines for 52 years. The man later said he remembered swallowing it at the age of 12 and was too scared to tell his parents about it. Yang said he thought the toothbrush would dissolve on its own, and had not felt anything in his stomach until recently. Doctors found the toothbrush stuck in his small intestine. They performed endoscopic surgery and removed the toothbrush.
* That’s one way to insure that you always brush after eating.
* His Oral-B could have been removed Anal-E.
* What did he tell his parents when he said he needed a new toothbrush?
* While they were in there, they should have checked for a chopstick or two.
* Folks, when you brush your teeth, just stick to the teeth. Don’t go for the tonsils.
