Among the foreign bodies most often found in children's nostrils are hair, beads, toy parts, paper wads, and food.1 Sometimes extraction of nasal foreign bodies can be difficult, especially if they are spherical. The classical presentation is a unilateral, persistent, foul-smelling; purulent, or bloody nasal discharge. Ulceration, dislodgement of the foreign body into the nasopharynx, and aspiration of the foreign body can complicate the problem.
