The woman decided to go to the hospital in Pontevedra, Spain to get an x-ray and she got the shock of a lifetime…
The images revealed that a 9-millimeter metal screw was lodged in her lung.
It was determined that the woman accidentally inhaled the screw nearly a year earlier during a series of dental treatments.

Luckily, doctors were able to extract the screw from her lung during surgery.
What’s the big lesson here, folks? Try not to open your mouth when you’re out in public, if at all humanly possible…
I think it’s safe to go ahead and call this story “The Taming of the Screw”…I’ll be here all week!
