Suggest Remedy To Ease Strong Sensation In Throat Post Inhaling A Piece Of Chip

I believe I inhaled a little piece of Dorito chip while eating lunch and when I drank water to clear the passage there was no change in movement or feeling of going down . I can breathe fine but I still feel a strong sensation in throat region about 1 1/2 below Adam s apple. What should a person do in this predicament?

Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, though a call to 911 is best thing to do certain home remedies can be figured out here as:

- gargles with salted lukewarm water added peppermint oil
- consume high fiber content items as oranges, banana, hotpotch
- avoid dairy fat, spices, non veg
- analgesic as ibuprofen with antacid after meals
- syrup mylanta 10 ml every 8 hourly

* Visit to ENT specialist is mandatory if the symptoms persist beyond a period of 24 hours.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
