Trying to figure out what this kid's toy from the dentist is. I tried to look for it online and the only thing that looked similar was a fidget toy/spring like this:
Except this is just a solid piece of plastic. I thought maybe it just needed to be pulled apart, but it broke in half when I tried.
Maybe it's a spring that somehow fused together? No idea what else it could possibly be.
This is how plastic Slinky toys used to come out of the box. You had to break them apart. Sounds like you got a bad one?
