A 7-year-old Georgia boy accidentally swallows one of his AirPods and ends up in the hospital, his mother says. - TODAYshow
Doctors told the family the gadget would pass through the boy’s body on its own and come out naturally in the stool within a few days, and that he would be fine, Stroud said. She wanted to share the story to warn other parents.
Dr. Sean McGann, an emergency physician at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, said he’s never yet treated anyone who has swallowed an AirPod, but"Children can swallow a wide variety of objects, so this incident is generally not that surprising," added Dr. Gary A. Smith, a pediatric emergency medicine physician at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, and president of the Child Injury Prevention Alliance.

Warning signs include loud wheezing, difficulty breathing and coughing.
