Surgeons have removed a huge lump of hair the weight of a bag of apples from a little girl's stomach after she complained of a severe tummy ache.
Doctors discovered a 3.3lb mass inside the six-year-old's tummy when it started to swell up.
It is understood the build-up happened after the girl in Panchkula, India, started sucking or chewing on her own hair.
Dr. Vivek Bhadhoo successfully performed surgery to remove the hair mass at Civil Hospital in Panchkula on Monday [24].
The little girl is now under observation in a stable condition with her parents by her side as doctors monitor her movement and check on her health conditions, the source said.
