As an X-ray tech for 25 years in a big-city ER I saw this several times. It is very hard to get an image of a fishbone because they have so little calcium they don't block the X-rays and leave a distinctive image on the film like a regular bone, but a good tech can fiddle with the machine to enhance the image. One woman had a bone right through her esophagus. She didn''t think it was anything important until she realized she couldn't swallow anything and had a lot of pain. It had caused a massive infection and was obstructing her breathing. A tricky surgery later she was out of danger but will always have a rough edge to her voice.

[@charlieangkor8649]

First his neck snapped. Then his pancreas exploded. His liver cirrhozed and punctured his kidneys which developed abscesses as the result. The abscesses released a chemical known as PROTHROMBINOCYTOKINE STORM CAUSING GOLGI APPARATUS DISSOLVING PROTEIN P7 PLATELET FACTOR A1 STIMULATING HORMONE NECROTIZING FACTOR A31 which travelled to his lungs, where it caused a massive cytokine storm, which travelled down to his pelvic bones which snapped in a gruesome, blood curdling crunching motion making sounds like a bell pepper being bitten into, and thick blood from his mesenteric pelvic artery started gushing all over. Then all his organs fell out in one swoop out of the bottom of his pelvic girdle, while his knees buckled and his knee tendons snapped and whipped all around, throwing the bloody intestines all around the walls of his apartment. What could possibly go wrong, just from taking a breath of oxygen, right?

[@timewalker6654]

"Horribly painful and slow death"? Sound like life.

[@buglerplayz7497]

​​@@charlieangkor8649 you forgot he had hyperoxiemia Hyper- meaning high - oxi - meaning oxygen -emia meaning presence in blood He had high amount of oxygen present in blood

[@worlwr2]

Weeelllll....that'd be called Hyperoxia / Oxygen Toxicity when you breath in oxygen more than the 21% that exists in our air concentration for an [extended] period of time. Apparently it leads to oxidative damage to cell membranes leading to such things as the collapse of the alveoli in the lungs. Can also cause general organ damage, seizures, and finally, death. So you're more or less on the money with the title.

[@htsaul1569]

Well, it is actually, possible because oxygen is an oxidizing agent, which means oxygen (O2) could cause damage to DNA causing a fatal cancer with a slow and painful death. And the most scary part is that is not even a joke, it really happens. That is why it is really important to consume antioxidant nutrients in order to avoid oxidative stress in the cells.

[@Lee-fw5bd]

the quote seems incorrect, but yeah... your takeaway is good and pretty obvious. the thing is that in the case of medicine, it's not feasible to follow up on every single possible lead in the order that they are brought up, so performing a risky/invasive surgery over something that is very unlikely is usually a bad idea when there are many other more possible leads pointing to more likely things.

[@malavoy1]

I always thought that was from Asimov.

[@ChiefMasterGuru]

[@karlwheeler9076]

I agree that it was a bit arrogant to call it “ridiculous,” but I also must agree with @Lee Butler that there must be a relatively high degree of certainty to do something as invasive as abdominal surgery, as it can often lead to more harm than help if the assumptions made from the leads turn out to be incorrect

[@baguazhang2]

When I went to China for the first time, I got a plate of fish. I wasn't used to bones being in fish, and this particular fish had a LOT of long, tiny bones that my friends said made it really difficult to eat. My first big bite was shocking, as my mouth was full of sharp bones. Fortunately, I didn't swallow any.

[@GiraffeFlavoredCondoms]

I don't understand why certain places don't remove the bones from fish. I can understand not beheading animals or removing fins, you just eat around that part if you don't want it but bones are almost impossible to avoid and way way way more difficult to remove once the fish is cooked. Not to mention I now have to sit there and dig my fingers into my hot food to pick out the bones because the chef was too lazy to grab a pair of chefs tweezers or just cut that section of the fish out? Fucking stupid.

[@cerealpisserpenguin]

@@GiraffeFlavoredCondoms it’s probably a cultural thing. People grew up eating whole fish caught straight from the rivers nearby thus they are skilled at/expected to remove the bones. A lot of fish also contain so many bones that if you remove them they would look unpresentable on a plate. These fish tend to taste better too. But I agree, it is a pain in the ass to have a mouthful of spikes just from a tiny piece of fish.

[@lc9245]

@@GiraffeFlavoredCondoms mostly cultural because fish are cooked and eaten whole there. Their fishes are tiny, full of tiny bones as well, unlike large and nice European and temperate climate fish. I think they didn’t have a lot of experience preparing the salmon. Based on the photo, it looks like basically a rib of the salmon. Usually you would pull them out with a tweezer, but they can miss one or two bones if they are not used to it. That’s a huge piece of bone as well. I thought that would have been extremely noticeable normally. The bones from river fish that are cooked whole are usually tiny, extremely brittle. If you don’t spit them out, simply chewing them up is possible consider how small they are. Not a salmon bone, however.

[@sylviafetherus4774]

@@GiraffeFlavoredCondoms I'm a Vietnamese person. When we prepare fish, we only remove the guts. We cook the fish as a whole, and then later we use chopsticks to get the flesh from the bones. This is due to most fish are small and don't have lots of meat on them, so we don't bother removing the bones before cooking, as the eaters can easily get the flesh by chopsticks.

Dad: "The chances of that happening are slim to none and...." Dad fell into a logical fallacy. While it is of very low probability that his son would randomly get a fish bone lodged in his body, the evidence on the scans showed a long, thin object. The probability of a long, thin foreign body being a fish bone is actually quite good. One must always be prepared to re-adjust the frame in response to new information when problem solving.

[@pwhqngl0evzeg7z37]

Specifically, his father could have realized that, being in Vietnam, PB was probably consuming more fish than usual, increasing the probability that a bone would pass into his body, neglected during chewing.

[@dalhousiekid]

Smart comment.

[@Anon20855]

@@pwhqngl0evzeg7z37 correction : neglected during NOT CHEWING

[@peccantis]

Dad committed the fallacy of isolated statistics. Of course deep perforations by fish bones are rare in the _general population_--fish that gets eaten (in US at least) is usually prepared industrially so the occurrence of pinbones in meals is low to begin with--and most people chew their damn food, detecting the occasional stray bone, further slimming down the occurrence of fish bones entering the GI tract. The scant bones that get swallowed usually pass through without incident. The very scant bones that don't pass through nicely usually don't end up in the spleen. But his son isn't the general population. His son is notorious for inhaling his food from childhood on, and ate large-boned fish at a corresponding time before the onset of his symptoms. Moreover, the symptoms make the other doctor suspect a fish bone perforation--not just any other doctor, but one whose career has been within a region where people eat way more fish than the US, and prepare it mainly at home or at small businesses. When you hear hoofbeats, and you're in the savannah... don't make a fool of yourself by parroting "think horses not zebras".

[@grecco_buckliano]

Not only that, there was a history of the son's behavior that reinforced this possibility. Why dad would ignore that is beyond me, but pisses me off a little.

There's a saying we should all live by: *"Nature will castigate those who don't masticate."* - as mentioned by Horace Fletcher.

The viral presence in blood is called viremea but is normally not called specifically because for most viruses, if they are somewhere, they are probably in blood at some capacity.The important bit with coronaviruses specifically is actually presence (and damage) is lung alveori, especially with "the" coronavirus everyone is talking about (i.e. SARS-COV-2) because that is what causes deaths, the virus itself (in blood) is probably about as bad as any other "common cold".

Tip: If you're eating a fish and a bone gets stuck in your throat, take like a quarter or half handful of rice and just swallow it,don't chew.
