Man develops breathing issues after playing with Lego during his teenage years; here’s what happens next

An American man grew up with sleep apnea, breathlessness, etc., only to figure out that the multiple breathing issues were the result of a Lego man piece that had stuck in his nose twenty-six years ago. A video of 32-year-old Andi Norton has garnered social media's attention. In the video, he claims a Lego toy piece remained inside his nose for over three decades.

The incident dates back to the 1990s, when Andi Norton was a kid. His favourite pastime, like other 90s kids, was playing with Lego toys. Once, Norton mistakenly inserted a Lego toy inside his nose and could not remove it.

Childhood trouble of sticking Lego toy inside nose

Andi Norton began his video by narrating his childhood mischief, which landed him in extreme trouble. Norton shared how he put a Lego dot piece inside his nose, and it got stuck. The situation worsened when he tried to take that piece out with a small Lego man toy, and it also got stuck. Later, Norton's mother helped him and took out the Lego man with tweezers. Hardly, the two had any idea that a piece of the toy was still inside Norton's nose.

Growing up with breathing issues

Norton shared in the video that he suffered from multiple breathing issues, including apnea, asthma, etc. Most of the health conditions started without any cause.
