Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain After Choking On Food
I choked on food one week ago severely enough to need Heimlich performed to get me breathing again. For the past week, my throat has been sore [like an injury - not like a "sore throat"] and my lungs and ribcage are extremely sore as well. What can I do.
