Home > News Shots > World newsIn a shocking and bizarre case, a man from China lived with eight long needles stuck in his backside for a decade. His 10-year long pain was solved when doctors extracted the eight embroidery needles that were stuck in his behind.
The man has been identified as Chen, who is 55-year-old from Changsha in China. The surgery took place on August 15.
As per Times Now report, he recently experienced the tingling sensation frequently but least did he know that it was a serious issue. Also, he would get the pain mostly when he ran.
As the pain continued for a long time, he finally decided to see a doctor earlier this month. An X-ray of the man's backside showed eight needles inside his body, Times Now further reported.
After this news went viral, doctors asked him to think and see when did any such incident take place.
To which, Chen recalled an incident where he had fallen on a pile of garbage at his workplace. He had landed on metal needles which might have been the reason. Some of the needles got stuck in an active muscle, causing pain when Chen stretched at specific angles.
Without wasting much time, doctors conducted an operation that lasted more than 4 hours and removed the needles. Currently, Chen is said to be recovering from the surgery.
