US Government reveals 25 worst things stuck up people's bums in 2025

Look, even though it seems like some weird kind of movie plot or story from a friend of a friend ‘who knows someone’, the reality is a lot of people do get weird stuff stuck up their bums.

And when I say ‘a lot’, I mean thousands with it said nearly 4,000 people in the US are hospitalised each year and Brits have cost the NHS over £3 million with this issue.

So, while you’re still curating that perfect round-up of your travels from last year or showcasing your best foodie pics, here’s the year dump that matters: the worst 25 things people got stuck up their bums in 2025. It certainly beats the TikTok trend anyway.

Yep, the US Government has released its running tally from doctors of the objects they remove from people’s rectums.

This ‘trend’ has been documented for decades with the American Journal of Emergency Medicine estimating that nearly 39,000 hospital visits a year are related to rectal foreign bodies. It’s said that most patients are middle-aged and male with over half of the cases involving sex toys.

Sometimes the cases tend to go on a bit because of people trying to fix their situation themselves, meaning things like tweezers or even coat hangers show up.

Defector sifted through the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s database of emergency room visits and so here’s what’s thought to be the ‘worst 25’ of those other than sex toys (such as the likes of a 24-inch-long dildo):
