A 19-year-old man had to be rushed to hospital after a deodorant container became stuck inside his rectum and could not be removed.

The patient, who was not named, was admitted to hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, with intense pain and abdominal discomfort after he inserted the deodorant during a "sexual game", local media reported on 26th January.

According to colorectal surgeon Daniel Brosco, the object moved further up and got lodged in the patient's rectum.

The medical team performed the removal procedure to avoid serious complications.

During the procedure, doctors monitored the patient's overall condition to rule out internal bleeding or perforation.

The patient remained in hospital under observation afterwards.

Dr Brosco said he decided to speak publicly about the case to warn others that these "sexual experiments" could have potentially deadly consequences.

He explained: "Fantasy is not the problem. The problem is not using objects designed for this purpose," adding that he has already treated patients who developed severe infections and died after similar incidents.

The doctor said cases involving foreign objects stuck in the rectum have become increasingly common and that, in recent months, he has treated patients who required the removal of items including a potato, parts of a chair, a glass bottle and an anal plug.

He explained that the intestine can pull objects during involuntary contractions, or because of a vacuum effect created in areas such as the rectum, causing objects to become stuck very quickly.

Brosco also warned that if the object causes perforations of the intestine, the injuries can spread faecal matter and lead to severe infections that can be fatal.
