What Causes Pain In The Chest And Throat After Choking Up On Food?
I choked on a piece of steak like 4 hours ago my husband actually had to do the hillock remover on me until the steak came free. Well now my throat and chest hurt, it kinda hurts to swallow as well :( breathing is alittle short not much. Is this all normal after choking? Ty
Yes, after choking as there is some damage to the throat so it can hurt for some time. If you are feeling otherwise fine then there is no problem. Just take some Paracetamol for the pain and see as the pain will resolve in some time.
If not you cam see your doctor but I hope that would not be needed.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
