Kids often put things up their noses besides their fingers that can get stuck up there.
I’m Dr. Alan Greene and let’s talk about how to get things out.
One of my own children put 5 peas up his nose.
If there are things that are stuck up in the nose, if you can still see them,
you grab a pair of tweezers and gently try to pull them out.
If you can’t see them, you might have some help by closing the other nostril and
having them blow out hard to get it where you can see it and then pull it with tweezers.
But if they’re up there, you can’t see them, you can’t get them out,
it’s time for a trip to the doctor.
They have a different tools that’ll enable them get them out more easily.
With the peas in my son, we used a little nose vacuum and got them out one by one.
