What would happen if a human ate a paper towel?

This might sound like a stupid question, but hear me out. The recently had the munchies and was really stoned. I got paranoia so bad that I had swallowed a paper towel that I was considering throwing up. It got me to wondering, what happens if someone were to swallow a paper towel (NOT tissue paper, which dissolves in water). Paper towels can clog drainage systems. Would it be an automatic emergency surgery or would it somehow go through all those small ducts in the small intestine?
