A man claims he accidentally swallowed a glass while drinking tea

The 55-year-old patient was admitted to a hospital in India with constipation and severe abdominal pain. He underwent both an ultrasound and an X-ray where medics located a "serious disturbance" in his intestines.

It turned out that the "disturbance" turned out to be a whole glass.

The man claimed that he swallowed the glass while drinking tea but doctors weren't convinced as the food pipe was too narrow for the object to pass through.

Medics attempted to remove the glass from the rectum via an endoscopic procedure but had no choice but to operate on the man when that failed.

Dr. Mahmudal Hasan, head of the team of operating doctors, said: "How the glass got inside the body of the said patient, it is still a mystery."

The patient is now in a stable condition following his misadventure with the glass.
