Arizona man discovers piece of Lego has been stuck in his nose for 26 years (www.independent.co.uk)
 
 

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/17451059

Andi Norton, 32, who also goes by the name Ben Havoc, said in an Instagram post earlier this month that he blew his nose and, “low and behold,” a Lego dot piece came out.

Havoc explained that, when he was six years old, he put the Lego dot up his nose.

The toy was “too small for me to reach in my nose and grab it,” he said. So, he said he “had the brilliant idea” of shoving a Lego man up his nose to collect it.

“At this point, I’ve panicked loudly and my mom came in and, in her panic, she’s looking at my nose and seeing there’s a Lego head stuck in my nostril,” he said.

His mom pulled out that second toy with a tweezer – believing it to be the only piece.

For the last 26 years, Havoc said he has suffered from multiple breathing issues including asthma and has recently been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea.

He said that his doctor had recommended he blow his nose in the shower during the summer months in order to take advantage of the steam and humidity.

After following that advice for the past six months, one day he got a big surprise when the Lego piece fell out of his nose.
