What Causes A Sudden Choking Sensation In The Throat While Eating?

Yesterday, I was eating chocolate and I suddenly choked and some of it didn t pass my throat so now I can kind of feel it in my nose. It s a bit uncomfortable but I can still breath normally and I m curious whether I should just wait a few days or do something to get rid of it. It also feels like it s also in my throat but I m not sure. So I tried eating bread in case and it helped a little and I ve been drinking lots of water. Should I wait or try some home remedies to get rid of it?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Hope there is no food obstructing your throat after 3 days especially chocolate.

If you are having food with water smoothly, no need to worry and if there is a difficulty, then please consult an ENT Surgeon.

He will do a flexible laryngoscopy and make you sure about the picture of your throat.

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

Regards,
Dr. Rajat Basak
