A single hair will not cause any problems at all. You need not worry. Hair is made of keratin which is not digested in our body, so it will come out of the body without much hassle. Please note: further check up, history and examination may be required, seek immediate medical attention if you experience worsening of symptoms. Feel free to contact me for more information :) my consulting fee is only rs 1! get well soon
