What Causes Discomfort In Left Side Of Neck After Eating?
Hello, I was eating a spaghetti like chinese noodle and because I was doing so with soup, I think a noodle that I did not manage to chew might have gone down the wrong pipe. I am breathing fine and there is no choking but I feel discomfort on the left sick of my neck. Is this something I should be worried about?
Hello...read through or query..and accordingly I must say that there is absolutely nothing to be worried in this case.As u said you don't have any breathing problem it means the food had gone through proper pipe only(otherwise you won't be even able to type this much ,you might have become bluish and difficult breathing if it had gone through windpipe)The feeling of something is stuck is due to sudden movement of big noodles chunk causing scratches in the walls of food pipe.Don't worry be cool..It will heal in few days ti,me.try to avoid hard and too hot food for few days.drink lots of cold drinks and soft diet.Have lots of citrus fruits(may facilitate healing).Besides all these stay cool and happy.Happiness is the best medicine for all diseases.Hope you are benefitted something from this reply.Have a healthy day.Advance new year wishes!!!!!!
