Under normal circumstances, the mango kernel will be with the food residue through the stomach, duodenum, for intestinal, and finally with the fecal discharge, generally does not cause any impact on the body. For some children, the intestinal tract is relatively narrow, the mango core may not be able to pass through the intestinal tract smoothly, which may cause intestinal obstruction and abdominal pain.
