Tiny tree in man's body

The 28-year-old patient arrives at the hospital with troubling symptoms. He told a doctor that he had severe chest pain and had been coughing a lot for a while. The medical team realized right away that there was no time to spend, and therefore he was scheduled for an x-ray. Unexpectedly, the X-ray results showed nothing unusual; the guy only had a tumor in his lungs. Because it wasn't the best news for the patient, the physicians decided that it needed to be removed as soon as possible. However, their initial assessment changed on the day of surgery. Not only was the operation harder than they were expecting, but when the probe was sent for more information, the tumor they got rid of from the patient had an abnormal shape. investigation The doctors were confused it was a small fur tree. The surgeons thought that the patient had probably inhaled a seat that had settled in his lungs. As the tree grew into a sapling, its small needle started to damage the tissue near it, causing discomfort in his chest and coughing. weighed in on the mysterious story and weren't so quick to accept it, saying it was probably made up On one hand most plants need a lot of sunlight to grow which isn't available in a human lung Also if it were that simple we'd all have things growing in our bodies small seeds aren't that hard to swallow or inhale right this wasn't the only story about plants growing in a human lung that baffled scientists in 2010 a man from the United States stated that Even though knowing that the patient already had a history of respiratory problems, the Massachusetts man was hospitalized after his lung collapsed yet again. Doctors didn't seem to be amazed after they discovered a mass inside the man's lung and immediately removed it. What they discovered was also as surprising as the fir tree a small pea plant but this particular one was different. time doctors suggested that the man probably had peas for dinner but that one simply went the wrong way and didn't end up in his stomach as it should have once it reached his lungs the small pee got comfortable and began sprouting leaves the truth is a bit more complex in this case but it does make it more plausible turns out that the piece that was removed from the man's lung was only about half an inch long something that small doesn't qualify as a full-grown plant but the seed was able to grow though that's because a pea seed can Sprout even without light it naturally does that underground the seed doesn't need to have any light at this point because the Tiny Seed has enough energy stored inside to help it grow to the level of the soil where it gets the sunlight it needs to continue because of their relationship with the sun plants are called autotrophs or organisms that use exposure to light to feed themselves a lot of us think that plants get their daily menu from the soil we place them in but that's not feeding them plants need sunlight water and the gases in the air to produce glucose the substance they use for food this whole process is called photosynthesis and is performed by all Plants algae and even a bunch of microorganisms like the purple sulfur bacteria now back to our unfortunate human patient while it's true that the Pea seed might have germinated since it had sufficient moisture in there to survive it didn't grow into a full-sized plant it would have needed sunlight for that so that photosynthesis could begin that's not to say it wasn't damaging or dangerous a lot of other emergency room doctors have similar stories too like this one coming from some doctors in Essex whose patient initially seemed to have lost her Dentures the woman was elderly and already had memory problems and they initially didn't give this mistake much thought that wasn't until the woman was later discovered to have some other problems with her lungs too it didn't take them long to connect the dots and figure out that the woman's upper dentures weren't all lost they were just inside her body the woman had swallowed them but didn't realize and they got stuck at the bottom of her throat also causing her respiratory problems not all such mishaps happened by accident another man in the UK wanted to offer his fiancee the engagement ring of her dreams but it didn't fit his budget so he came up with what he believed to be a clever plan he went to the jewelry parlor and patiently waited for the Jeweler to shift his Focus From the ring for a split second as soon as that happened he swallowed the ring the Jeweler wasn't easily tricked and called the police once under the metal detectors the man could only confess The Crafty romantic was escorted to a cell where he was expected to and pass the ring back to its rightful owner it's not the only reason people were caught swallowing jewelry a woman once came up to the emergency doctor complaining about stomach pains there was nothing bizarre about her on the contrary she was a middle-aged woman both fashionable and tidy her physical exam didn't reveal anything suspicious about her but the x-ray they had to make sure did as they were looking at the images the doctors were perplexed a whole lot of jewelry was stuck inside the woman's stomach and intestines the medical staff obviously questioned her about how the objects got there and her response was even more outrageous she said she wanted to keep her jewelry safe from her husband which she claimed had a bit of a habit of gifting her jewelry to other women nice guy one other doctor remembered having a patient with a bottle cap stuck in his throat the problem is he didn't even notice he had a strange object stuck inside of him it was simply discovered at a routine checkup fortunately no surgery was needed to fish this one out doctors managed to get it out using a small medical net they were curious how this man managed to get a bottle cap stuck in his throat and not even know it his response was simple he did remember drinking water some days prior but he couldn't find the cap he brushed the whole thing off and went on with his day other times naughty things we do when we were young can come back to haunt us years later a 30 year old woman surely learned this lesson the hard way when she ended up in the emergency room with a stuffy nose no medicine seemed to help so she knew she had to get it examined by a professional once the doctors had a look they realized she had some inflamed tissue up her nose and something that resembled a foreign object it also looked like that object had been there for quite some time they couldn't figure out what it was so she was immediately taken to the operating room what the surgeons removed was then taken to be further investigated and it turned out to be some sort of material resembling paper after they questioned her the woman did remember having stuffed some paper in her nose when she was little but was just as surprised as the doctors that the small piece had stayed there up her nose for over 20 years some extractions of foreign objects are more complicated than others a kid ended up at the emergency room after he stuffed his brother's plastic construction toy up his nose as the doctors were trying to carefully remove it the kid caught and the toy went down his throat and into his stomach both the doctors and the kids family patiently waited for the boy to pass the toy out to the Final Destination that's probably because the kid wanted to give it back to his brother but it's probably okay for the kid to keep it.
