The symptoms of food inhalation depend on the degree to which the food is irritating. A bone or chili pepper would be much more irritating than a cheerio. The lungs are able to remove foreign objects. In fact, the cheerio has probably already been broken down and carried away by your body.
Since the lining of the uterus is within the cavity âalso known as the endometrial cavityâpolyps are always located in the interior of the uterus. Polyps vary in sizeâfrom millimeters to centimetersâcan be single or multiple, and typically occur at the top-most portion of the uterus.
The endometrial tissue may attach itself to the ovaries, the outside of the uterus, the intestines, or other abdominal organs. Rarely, endometriosis occurs outside the abdominal cavity, such as in the brain or lungs. Endometriosis may also develop in surgical scars following surgery on pelvic organs. The term implant is used to refer to a specific area of endometriosis in a certain tissue. Many American women will experience problems with endometriosis, but an exact determination of the number of women affected is difficult, since many women may have the condition and do not have symptoms.
