Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello. thank you for your question. Ingestions are very common in this age group. In this case you have nothing to worry about. The amount was small and he has been fine. Typically, if a toxic amount has been ingested, there is a more immediate reaction. You can continue with his usual care.
