ABSTRACT

It is stated that accidental ingestion of corrosive substance has a high risk in children who are under 5 years of age, and has it’s pick at 2 years old. Children who fall under this age range have more domestic accidents than other children, thereby causing severe problems and increased morbidity and mortality.
