Hello Doctor.I had a bad habit of putting things in my mouth until I swallowed a bunch of staple pins.It seems they are still stuck in my throat as I can feel something.There is no discomfort or pain in my throat.However,I am nervous.How to get them out of my throat or push them into my stomach so I can pass them out through stool safely?

Hi, thanks for your query .
swallowing staple pin is hazardous because it is a metal piece. It has to be removed at any cost. Please consult with your doctor as early as possible and get it removed.
X ray or ct scan are the diagnosis test done to detect the staple pins. Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
