Question

Accepted Answer

If your baby swallowed a pen nib (pen nok), stay calm but act quickly:

Check for immediate danger: If your baby is choking, coughing severely, drooling, having difficulty breathing, or turning blue, call emergency services or go to the nearest hospital immediately.

If baby seems fine: If your baby is breathing normally and not in visible distress, the object may have passed into the stomach. However, a pen nib is sharp or pointed, which can potentially harm the digestive tract.

Do not try to make the baby vomit or give anything by mouth unless advised by a doctor.

Seek medical help immediately: Take your baby to a pediatrician or emergency room as soon as possible. An X-ray or endoscopy may be needed to locate the object and assess if it poses a risk.

⚠️ Sharp objects can cause injury to the throat, stomach, or intestines even if the baby appears fine initially. So don’t wait—get medical help right away.
