Tiktoker Alexa Hendricks you can say you’ve had an exciting few weeks since an object lodged in your mouth after lunch.
The 22-year-old went on to live a saga to find out what she had stuck in her cheek and told the story on the social network – and had followers who were worried about what that “object” could be, to consultations with dentists who did not know what was happening.
the beginning of the saga
The story began in the first week of March, during a visit to New York. Alexa and her sister went to a restaurant for lunch and the volleyball player also ordered a salad with some edible flowers.
According to her, already in the first chews she felt a “sting in her mouth”. Initially, she assumed that a flower stalk had pierced her cheek.
His first reaction was to try to get it off with his tongue and finger, but the harder he tried, the harder it was. “The object was pushed further and further into my mouth,” he said.
Unsuccessful in this attempt, the young woman returned home to the state of Kentucky. In the following days, Alexa began to complain of pain in her cheek and difficulty eating and sleeping.
@achendricks Seriously someone lmk
inconclusive diagnoses
After the inconvenience that the pain was causing, Alexa decided to go to the dentist to investigate. To her dismay, the diagnosis couldn’t be more frightening: inconclusive.
At the appointment, the dentist stated that he “had no idea what to suggest”.

Unsatisfied with the answer, the next day she consulted with another professional. And again the diagnosis was “even more unsatisfactory”.
The dentist stated that there was nothing stuck in the mouth, but that the splinter of some object pierced the oral tissue and caused trauma – which worsened in the days after the incident.
Hendricks was given a prescription for mouthwash and pain relief medicine.
After the inconclusive consultations, Alexa stated that she “began to believe in the doctors” and ruled out the possibility of having something stuck in her cheek.
the end of the mystery
After three weeks, the “mystery” was solved in the most unpretentious way possible.
Last Thursday (23), while eating an apple during a trip with her boyfriend, Alexa began to feel an object moving inside her mouth.
In an interview with the North American portal Insider, the influencer said that her jaw began to “squeeze and lock”. She started massaging the area with her fingers while her boyfriend stopped the car and started filming the scene.
“I was looking in the mirror to see and when I opened my mouth, [o objeto]”, reports the portal.
After weeks of mystery, the said object was discovered: it was a daisy seed a flower similar to the sunflower.

After removing the seed, tiktoker reports “that she is feeling much better and is no longer in pain”.
success in networks
The “mysterious object saga” won thousands of curious followers with the outcome. In the videos about the story, the influencer reached more than 15 million views.
Followers cheered when Alexa discovered what was lodged in her mouth as if this had happened to them too.
“You don’t understand how satisfying this is for us,” said one user. “I can finally rest now,” added another.
