Foreign Body Removal in Kathmandu

Foreign body removal is needed when an object gets stuck inside the ear, nose, or throat. This is common in children, but it can also happen in adults due to accidental insertion, food particles, fish bone, insects, or small objects.

At ENT Care Center, foreign body removal is done after proper ENT examination to identify the location, type, and possible risk before removal.

You may need urgent ENT evaluation if something is stuck in the ear, nose, or throat and cannot be removed safely at home.

Common warning signs include ear pain, blocked ear, nasal blockage, foul-smelling nasal discharge, throat pain, difficulty swallowing, coughing, choking sensation, bleeding, or discomfort after an object enters the ear, nose, or throat.

Why You Should Not Try Unsafe Removal at Home

Trying to remove a foreign body with pins, cotton buds, fingers, oil, or sharp objects can push it deeper or cause injury, bleeding, infection, or eardrum damage.

If the object is inside the throat or airway-related area, unsafe removal can also increase the risk of choking or breathing difficulty.

How ENT Evaluation Helps

During evaluation, the ENT specialist examines the affected area carefully. Depending on the location, instruments, suction, endoscopic support, or other suitable methods may be used to remove the foreign body safely.

Further treatment may be advised if there is infection, swelling, bleeding, or injury after removal.

Patient-Focused Emergency ENT Care

At ENT Care Center, patients and parents are guided clearly about the removal process, precautions, follow-up care, and warning signs. Early evaluation helps prevent complications and supports safer recovery.
