Hi,

It is advisable to consult an ENT specialist doctor for the removal of foreign body(shrimp) from the throat.

If needed the removal of foreign body from your throat has to be done under endoscopic guidance.

You should go in emergency department and consult ENT specialist doctor.

Don't try to remove the foreign body from the throat by self.

Hope this answers your question.Take care.
