What are some good ways to deal with a fish bone stuck in your throat?

Fish is rich in nutrients and is one of the favorite meats for many carnivores. Especially during festivals, the whole family always gets together for dinner, and chicken, duck, fish and meat are always on the table. Of course, it is a happy thing to enjoy delicious food and be with friends and relatives from far away. However, sometimes if people are not careful, fish bones will get stuck in their food, and they will be unable to swallow or spit them out. So, what should we do? Let's read on.

Methods/Steps

>01

When a fish bone gets stuck in your throat, never swallow it blindly. Because if the fish bone stuck in the throat is hard, it will cause great damage to the throat and esophagus, and may puncture the esophagus and cause heavy bleeding. That would be very dangerous. First, you can try to swallow it with clean water. Clean water is flowing and will not force the fish bone to sink. Even if you can't swallow it, it will not cause too much harm.

>02

If we can see the fishbone when we open our mouth, we can use tweezers or clamps to remove it. Do not swallow it blindly to avoid it getting stuck deep in the throat.

>03

If the fish bone is just stuck in the throat and not yet deep in the throat, you can try coughing to cough out the fish bone, or press the root of the tongue with your fingers to make the person vomit and bring the fish bone out with the vomit.

>04

Some people like to eat steamed buns to remove fish bones, but this method is actually not advisable. This very hard method can easily damage our esophagus. Unless you know that what you are swallowing is a small soft thorn, don't force swallowing food.

>05

If you try the above methods and still cannot remove the fishbone, you should seek medical attention immediately. Do not delay too long to avoid missing the best time.

>06

We can eat fish with fewer bones, such as black fish, catfish, and eel. These fish have fewer bones and are easy to separate, making them especially suitable for the elderly and babies. If you are giving food to the elderly and babies, don't let them eat fish with too many bones. These fish bones are hard to guard against, so as to avoid causing harm to your family. It is better to take precautions before it happens.

When we enjoy delicious food, we must not swallow it whole, especially for some more complex foods. We should chew them slowly, which not only helps digestion but also benefits our health. It is recommended that children and the elderly should avoid eating fish with many bones. It is best to choose fish without bones or with fewer bones for them to avoid accidents. If accidents occur, go to the hospital to remove them in time.
