Brief Answer:
Add tylenol to this!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The violent cough during this choke explains the symptoms that you experienced. Irritation often takes some time before clearing entirely and so too the cough. I will suggest that you add tylenol to this. Increased fluids, some rest and moderate exercise would be helpful. Keep me posted with your progress.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
