NO OBVIOUS SYMPTOMS
Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery is stuck in
a child's oesophagus (food pipe). There are no specific symptoms
associated with this.
THE CHILD MIGHT:
• cough, gag, or drool a lot
• appear to have a stomach upset or a virus
• be sick
• point to their throat or stomach
• have a pain in their abdomen, chest, or throat
• be tired or lethargic
• be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise "not themselves"
• lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite
• not want to eat solid food/be unable to eat solid food
These sorts of symptoms vary or fluctuate, with the pain increasing and
then subsiding.
A specific symptom of button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting
fresh (bright red) blood. If the child does this, seek immediate medical
help.
The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be vigilant with "flat"
or spare button or coin batteries in the home and the products that
contain them.
WARNING
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN
(WHETHER NEW OR USED)
A button battery is hazardous and can cause serious or fatal
injuries if swallowed or placed inside any part of the body. If
you think batteries have been ingested or entered any part of
the body, seek immediate medical attention.
