The incident occurred in the city of Almaty. A 5-year-old girl swallowed a children's magnet. Complications arose in the child's gastrointestinal tract. Doctors urge parents to pay attention to children's safety.
Swallowing magnets is very dangerous for children, as they can attract each other in the intestines and damage tissues. In this case, the girl received medical assistance. Currently, the girl's condition is stable.
Experts advise not to leave small objects, especially magnets, in places accessible to children. If a child swallows a foreign object, it is necessary to immediately consult a doctor.
