Could The Choked Food Be Sustained In The Throat?

Hi I was eating a piece of pizza when a small piece went down the wrong pipe. I started coughing right away and after about 5 min it slowed but I was having trouble talking for a min then it kinda stopped but the food didn t come out. I have this weird feeling in my throat now. Will I be okay? What symptoms should I look out for?

Wait for few hours. If the foreign body sensation persists, difficulty in swallowing and breathlessness, then you need to see your doctor
