A 55-year-old woman in Nepal was brought to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain and difficulty urinating after an indigenous healing method was applied. Specifically, a hot brass pot was placed tightly over the site of her abdominal pain. Over time, the pot became fused to her abdominal wall, strangulating the tissue. She required emergency surgery to remove the pot and repair the damaged and gangrenous abdominal wall. This case highlights the dangerous complications that can arise from applying indigenous healing methods without understanding their effects. It underscores the need for health education in communities about avoiding such practices that can cause harm.
