Child on bed
Back to St Emlyn's Reception

A 4 year old child is brought to the ED by their parents. She has put a screw up her nose and they cannot get it out.

You have a look and see the screw lodged in the left nostril.

The child is very distressed and you find it very difficult to get anywhere near her.
