I swallowed a cat's hair and caused me diarrhea. Does swallowing a cat's hair really cause serious diseases of the liver and lung?

Hair itself poses no danger because it is eliminated during digestion. It doesn't attack the internal organs nor does it stick to the esophagus or the intestines. Let's discuss your concern in detail for better advice and healthy lifestyle.
