Any Home Remedy To Remove Food Particle Stuck In Trachea?

Several time during lunch I probably eat too fast, cough severely and then sneeze some food through my nose. This time a small food particle must have got stuck in trachea. First I coughed severely for about ten minutes. The coughing became less, but there still must be a small particle there I can feel it. Is there an easy trick to remove it at home like a home remedy?Bokkie

Hello

Welcome in H.C.M.

I ave gone through your query regarding suspected food particle in trachea.

It some times happens that food particle may enter the air way instead of food passage, this situation some times may become life threatening and this may be manage as- BY PUSHING UPPER ABDOMEN ( xyphisternum ) IN A JERK BY OUR PALM. In this way one may dislodge the foreign particle in air way and laryngeal spasm may be avoided which is a life threatening situation.

Probably your query is answered.

Regards.
