 Delhi man accidentally swallows toothbrush while cleaning throat
A 36-year-old Delhi man accidentally swallowed a 12-cm-long toothbrush while thoroughly cleaning his throat on the advice of a quack. The toothbrush was removed at AIIMS by performing endoscopy, a non-surgical procedure in which a snare was used to pull it out from the upper abdomen. Earlier, he didn't tell the doctors about the toothbrush and kept taking painkillers.
