Remedy for foreign object stuck in throat
One
of the most effective known remedies for foreign objects stuck in the
throat is to chew on a handful of potato chips and swallow a whole lump
of them all at once. This mixture of saliva, salt, oil and potatoes is
abrasive yet smooth in nature and will most likely push down whatever
is obstructing the throat. If the piece is not very big or obtrusive,
it will exit your body through normal channels of excretion. Try
this method as many times as you have to. You can also try filling your
mouth with bread and then swallowing the whole lump together. It will
have the same effect as the potato chips. Another effective remedy for
removing something stuck in the throat is to try and gargle with warm
water. You can also try to gently massage the throat with upward
strokes from the outside.
In case of more serious choking, you
can try the Heimlich manoeuvre, in which you use your hands to exert
pressure on the bottom of the diaphragm. By thrusting repeatedly, the
foreign object may be expelled from the throat. However, this procedure
can sometimes cause injury and is best performed by a person who has
some training in first aid. This method may strictly not used if you
are pregnant.
