51-year-old Steve Easton has been suffering from intense headaches and clogged nasal passages for most of his life. He always blamed the symptoms on Hay Fever.
A few weeks ago, Easton sneezed and a piece of plastic dart flew out of his left nostril. The man said the mildly decomposed suction cup, part of a toy dart, had been lodged in his nasal cavity since the 1970s.
From DailyMail: ‘When I spoke to my mum, she said, “Oh yes, we took you to hospital when you were seven because we thought you had inhaled one”.’
Mrs Easton, and her husband Quentin, also 77, from Buckinghamshire, recalled finding their son playing with his dart gun – and noticing one of the rubber tips was missing.
She said: ‘He said he’d swallowed it and there was just one of these darts without a tip.
‘I took him to the hospital and they spent a lot of time looking for it, but in the end they said perhaps it was a mistake.
