What to do if medicine gets stuck in chest

When the human body is sick, it needs to take medicine for treatment. I believe that no one is willing to take medicine. Some people have a very strong resistance to taking medicine, which can easily lead to the situation where the medicine is stuck in the chest. This situation also causes great harm to the patient. After this situation occurs, do not eat food or drink water blindly, otherwise it will cause damage to the esophagus. So what should I do if the medicine is stuck in the chest?

First, what should you do if medicine gets stuck in your chest? Don’t be too scared. In fact, many people cannot swallow medicine completely due to psychological barriers. They always feel that the capsules will be stuck or choked. In fact, the situation you worry about will not happen. It is the same as your usual eating. Many people cannot swallow the capsules at once and feel that they are stuck in the throat, so they cannot swallow them. Generally speaking, drinking more water can flush the capsules down. You should think that your illness will be cured after taking the medicine, and give yourself a positive influence, which will help you take the medicine, instead of having a rejection mentality.

Second, the psychological hint. Some people say that they have finally swallowed the medicine, but feel that the medicine has not gone down their throats, and that drinking more water is of no use. In fact, sometimes it is their own psychological effects that are at work. When the medicine is stuck in the throat, it may cause a certain irritation to the mucous membrane of the throat, and the throat may swell, making you feel that the medicine is stuck in your throat. In fact, it is not. Generally, you don’t need to worry too much about this situation. Just drink plenty of water and eat normally and you will be fine in two days.

What should you do if medicine is stuck in your chest? Make the medicine smaller. If you are really afraid of swallowing large pills, you can only use the dumbest method, which is to make the medicine smaller, but it will be more painful to take, but the pain will last shorter. If it is a capsule, you can pour the capsule powder into a spoon, add a little water and then drink it, but this is really bitter. If the tablet is large, you can break it into pieces before taking it.
