SOURCES OF FOREIGN OBJECTS IN THE NOSE
Kids, because of their curiosity and their adventurous streak tend to put stuff in their nose.
If the object is sharp, it can cause damage to tissues in the nose.
At times, the object may block the nose.
Objects in the nose can also cause infections
Here are some items that kids commonly put in their nose:
- Small toys
- Toy parts
- Pencils, crayons and biros
- Pieces of eraser
- Pieces of paper and tissue
- Clay and play dough (used for arts and crafts)
- Food
- Buttons
- Beads
- Pebbles

- Dirt
- Button batteries
This list isn't exhaustive of course
