A two-year-old boy was delivered to the Osh Regional Children's Clinical Hospital after swallowing 17 magnetic balls from a toy. This was reported by the Osh Regional Interregional Children's Clinical Hospital.

According to medical information, the child experienced frequent vomiting for three days. After visiting the district hospital, an X-ray examination revealed several foreign objects arranged in a chain in the intestines, after which the patient was transferred to the regional clinic.

As a result of an emergency operation, surgeons successfully removed all the magnets. Currently, the child's condition is stable, and he is under the care of doctors receiving necessary treatment.

Medical specialists warn about the serious danger that magnetic toys pose to children. When several magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other in the gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to serious complications and require surgical intervention.
