I knew someone who could do this.

I never wanted to know how or why

When I was, I dunno, three or four, I stuck an orange seed up my nose. Our family doctor made a house call and removed it with a sterilized, old-fashioned buttonhook. This would’ve been 1968-69.

This is the most idiotic and dangerous “lifehack” I’ve ever seen. I am an ENT surgeon and do not recommend this! You may blow a hole in your child’s lungs (pneumothorax) or ear drum. Just see a doctor in this situation.
