One of the doctors who saved this guy described his case as "very rare." I think that's a bit of an understatement . . .
A 35-year-old man in Vietnam showed up at a hospital on Saturday and said he'd been having terrible headaches for months. So they did a CT scan and saw a massive amount of swelling in his brain. But the interesting part is what caused it.
He'd somehow gone five months without realizing he had two CHOPSTICKS jammed up his nose.
They weren't full chopsticks, but they weren't small either. One piece looks like it's about three inches long, and the other is more like five inches.
So how did they get up there? He said he had no idea at first. But then he remembered he'd been in a FIGHT five months ago while he was out drinking.
He doesn't remember much from it but thinks someone must have stabbed him in the face with the chopsticks. He says he went to a hospital back then too, but the doctor didn't notice anything wrong with his nose.
He had surgery over the weekend to remove both chopsticks. The last update we saw said he was in stable condition and should survive.
