Medical Conditions - Bezoar

A bezoar is defined as a ball of foreign material that has been ingested; it is typically made of hair or fiber. It does not travel through the intestines and instead gathers in the stomach. The most common cause of bezoar is the habit of chewing on hair and other fuzzy things. Individuals with compromised intellectual functioning and emotionally unstable children are at higher risk of bezoar.
