A. If your daughter ate a small amount of ferris stick (which I assume is a reference to a non-edible item, possibly metallic or something not meant for consumption), here’s what you should do: ### **Immediate Steps:** 1. **Assess the Situation:** - **Determine the Amount:** Evaluate how much of the ferris stick was ingested and whether it could cause any harm. 2. **Check for Symptoms:** - **Look for Signs:** Observe for any immediate symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, or any signs of discomfort. 3. **Consult Poison Control:** - **Call Poison Control:** Contact your local poison control center or emergency services for guidance on what to do next based on the specifics of the ingested item. They can provide expert advice tailored to the situation. 4. **Visit a Healthcare Provider:** - **Seek Medical Advice:** If advised by poison control or if you notice any concerning symptoms, take your daughter to the nearest emergency room or urgent care center. ### **Preventive Measures:** - **Keep Hazardous Items Out of Reach:** Ensure that all non-edible items are kept out of reach of young children to prevent accidental ingestion. - **Educate on Safety:** As your child grows, teach them about not putting non-food items in their mouth. ### **Emergency Contact Information:** - **Poison Control:** Have the contact information for your local poison control center readily available. Prompt action and monitoring are key in such situations to ensure your child’s safety and health.

A. Hello dear parent! Without proper physical examination it is not possible to understand the situation. Get your child personally examined by your doctor and seek medical advice. Clarify your concerns and follow your doctor’s advice
