Noticed Headaches Due To Choking And Discomfort In Throat

I want to know how serious this is a few weeks ago I was eating takeout food... and something hard went down my throat... it wasn't bad at first I thought it was just a very dry piece of food.... I swallowed it thinking I'd see the last of it... after time it didn't seem like what I swallowed was actually food... I was choking on it thinking it just went down the wrong tube briefly.... that's when problems began to arise whatever it is down there has gone up and down repeatedly... each time causing me more pain... this last week it has done more painful damage to me - It suddenly started blocking my airway.... next on its travel in my throat it has hit other pressure points.... my ear nerves, nerves connected by my eyes, and is causing mass headaches.... the longer it is there or in me I get more depressed... It hurts - an awful lot. I am on the verge of tears nightly now... I need help

Hi there,

Thanks for writing your query,

You seem to have a serious problem , i dont think it is a food particle because if it has to be food it dissolves due to hypersalivation or may come out due to vomit. i presume it is some foreign body that has strucked in the throat and troubles you. i would suggest you to visit an ENT surgeon and get the Endoscopy done which helps in finding out the cause. Accordingly treatment can be done.

i hope this helps ,

take care.
