Doctors in Punjab, India had to operate on a 15-year old teen girl and remove an astounding 1 kilogram of hair from her stomach. The girl, who was admitted to the hospital after complaining of not being able to eat or drink anything, had a massive clump of hair in her stomach which required immediate surgery.
She had a history of trichotillomania, in which a person has this need to pull her own hair. She also had trichophagia, in which a person eats hair that has been pulled out.
