AN IRANIAN man who was taken to hospital with constipation by his wife was holding a secret about the true cause.
Doctors described how they removed a huge foreign object from his rectum that had been there for three days.
The 50-year-old unnamed man was brought into hospital by his wife after she grew concerned about his lack of appetite, stomach pain and constipation.
He didn’t have any concerning vital signs and was not unwell.
But after having a CT scan, the shocking truth came out.
It showed a full bottle of water around the size of 250ml stuck in the pelvis area.
The bottom was lodged in the rectum and even entering the colon (large intestines), while the bottle top was about 10mm from the anus opening
The doctors wrote: “Because of his embarrassment and fear of his wife, he did not provide any history of the presence of a FB [foreign object] in the rectum and arrived at the ED [emergency department] late.”
Clearly, the wife had not been involved in the middle-aged man's ventures.
Luckily, there were no signs the man’s bowels had been stabbed open by the bottle.sos
