Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
If something like that happens it will immediately be surrounded by inflammatory cells and it won't be able to reach the heart. Even if it does manage to travel, finally it will be engulfed by inflammation and can result in swelling in the affected area.
Hope that answers your question,
Regards.

Thank you for your answer.
If swelling and stuck there... is it over or what happen next?
Thank you very much.
Hello,
In case there is an foreign body swelling, it will cause symptoms, may lead to fever, and investigations will be required to find the exact location.
If it causes obstructive symptoms, surgical intervention may be needed.
Regards.
