Chilli pepper removed from lung after a year-long cough

[pauly7]

A chilli pepper has been removed from the lung of a man in China's Heilongjiang province, one year after he choked on it.

Wang Yuxiang from Longjiang county visited his local hospital to treat his year-long cough, but doctors soon found the cause to be something rather unusual.

i've read a tree's seed could grow in a person's lung by just inhaling it and it'll take root. scary stuff. i hope i don't breathe in any weed seeds when i mow down the grass. lol.
