Jewelry Aspiration

From BMEzine Encyclopedia

If loose jewelry in your lip, nose, or mouth opens accidentally you may aspirate (breathe in) the jewelry and/or the bead. If this happens, seek medical attention immediately.

Minimize this risk by always making sure the beads on your jewelry are properly affixed.
