Vietnamese man with chronic headaches had chopsticks in brain

Hindustan Times  

A Vietnamese man was in for a shock when he learned the cause of the persistent headaches he had been enduring for five months: a pair of chopsticks lodged in his skull. Not only did they diagnose the patient with tension pneumocephalus, a rare and fatal neurosurgical condition, but they also discovered the presence of chopsticks that had penetrated into his skull through his nose, Metro reported. According to Vietnam.vn, the patient had a hazy recollection of someone stabbing something into his face while at a drinking table, leading to his emergency room visit. Despite experiencing recurring headaches, tightness, and pus discharge from his nose and throat, the presence of the lodged chopsticks had gone undetected.
