Hello,
As of now drink plenty of water and ear soft bland food like rice. If you still experience foreign body sensation, an X-ray may be taken to confirm whether it is stuck in the food pipe or not. If the bone is stuck in the esophagus (food pipe) and endoscopy directed removal may be required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
