Giant hair ball tears through teen's stomach, requiring surgery
Fox News
A teen in the U.K. who compulsively ate her own hair ended up developing a massive hairball in her stomach that tore a hole through her stomach wall, according to a new report.
The 17-year-old initially went to the hospital after she fainted twice, bruising her face and scalp during the falls. Doctors wanted to rule out a head injury, but during an exam, they also noticed a mass in the girl's upper abdomen. The teen said she had experienced intermittent abdominal pain for the past five months, which had worsened over the two weeks prior to her hospital visit, the report said.More Related News
