[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...I was getting lunch ready yesterday and my 11 month old grabbed a baby-bell cheese and bit a chunk out of it with the plastic and wax and swallowed the chunk!! I didn t see it in his stool yet today, how long will it take to pass the plastic and wax and is it dangerous?
[|AI|]  Small plastic rapper if was swallowed and has reached stomach will not be digested by GIT and in most of the cases will be excreted in stools after traveling whole gut in 2-3 days. But in some case unfortunately it may cause obstruction in narrow parts of bowel and leading to serious problems. Your baby needs to be monitored. You need to consult pedestrian and ask for investigations like USG abdomen to detect if any par of bowel is getting obstructed.X-Ray may not help as it cannot detect plastic. Regarding wax, it will not cause any problem apart from some loose stools.
