Food That Accidentally Went Down To Wind Pipe Will Dissolve Normally?

was eating mixed vegetables and accidentally had one go down my windpipe, I drew a breath to cough but I think inhaled it further down. I can breathe normally but almost have a bit of a gerd feeling in my upper chest area now. Should I go to ermergency room or will this food be dissolved normally and I just have to put up with a bit of a weird feeling for awhile?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if is the foreign body is trachea then it can not be dissolve and it has to be taken out and it is the medical emergency because it causes severe breathing difficulty, GERD is the infection condition with inflammatory process that is happening in esophagus, so need to worry about what happens to you, just relax hope this information helps.
