New Delhi: In India, it was revealed about a woman who has been suffering from abdominal pain for one and a half years that there is cloth present in her abdomen which doctors forgot during her delivery at a government hospital.
The incident occurred in the state of Telangana, where a doctor at a government hospital forgot a piece of cloth in the abdomen of a pregnant woman after her delivery. The woman had been suffering from severe abdominal pain for one and a half years.
According to the family, the woman’s delivery took place in December 2021 at a government hospital, and doctors performed a cesarean operation for delivery, but they left a piece of cloth in her abdomen.
The woman returned home after two to three days, but a few days later, she began to experience severe abdominal pain. She continued to take various medicines for a long time, but her condition did not improve.
