What to do if there is a foreign object in the throat

When there is a foreign object in the throat, we should choose the treatment method according to the type of foreign object. A very normal foreign object is a fish bone, which is easy to get stuck in the throat when eating fish. At this time, we can use tweezers to remove it, or we can soften the bone by drinking white vinegar. Now let us take a look at some methods to deal with foreign objects in the throat.

1. Use tweezers: When you feel there is a foreign object in your throat, you should stop eating and drinking, try to reduce your swallowing movements, and then use your fingers to stimulate your throat. This can induce vomiting and thus help expel the foreign object. If this still has no effect, you can use tweezers to remove the foreign object in your throat.

2. Drink aged vinegar: Drinking aged vinegar can also eliminate it, especially when we have fish bones stuck in our throat while eating fish. Because fish bones are relatively small, they will get stuck in our throat. We can drink some aged vinegar to soften the fish bones in the throat, and then eat some steamed buns or other things to bring the fish bones down.

3. Surgery: If the foreign body is difficult to remove, it can be removed through surgery. This method is relatively convenient and suitable for larger foreign bodies in the throat. After the operation, you must pay attention to your diet and eat some liquid food or some food that is easier to chew. This is also conducive to the recovery of the throat. It is forbidden to eat some irritating food.

The above are the answers to what to do if you always feel there is a foreign object in the throat. These are all things we need to understand. When there is a foreign object in the throat, you don’t need to be too anxious, and you can’t force swallowing, because our throat is relatively fragile. If you force swallowing, it will easily cause scratches on the throat, which will also cause local infection of the throat.
