Doctors find toothbrush in woman's nose

Doctors in India have removed a toothbrush from a woman's nose.

The housewife says she isn't sure how the three inch long brush got lodged
in her nostril.

She approached a hospital in Mumbai two months ago suffering from severe
pain.

The Mumbai Mirror reports that the broken toothbrush showed up during a CT
scan, shocking doctors.

The 31-year-old woman said: "I was brushing my teeth, my husband
accidentally pushed me and the toothbrush in my hand broke.

"I was left holding the lower portion of the brush but couldn't locate the
rest of it. Soon after, I started bleeding profusely from the nose.

"But since that day, I began getting breathless and a foul-smelling
discharge began to come out of my nose. I used to get restless gasping for
breath sometimes."

Dr Kaushal Sheth, who performed the surgery, said: "The odour from her nose
was so bad that it could be smelt from a distance of two feet. If the
object had fallen into her windpipe, she could have choked to death."
