Food stuck in throat?

Life is always full of various accidents. Some people will choke when drinking water, some people will suddenly fall down while walking, and some people will suddenly have food stuck in their throats while eating. If food is stuck in our throats while we are eating, we must not panic. In fact, we can try the following methods. Here are some solutions to food stuck in the throat.

How to solve the problem of food stuck in throat?

The first one is steamed bun. When something gets stuck in our throat while we are eating and we can neither swallow it nor spit it out, we can eat a big steamed bun and swallow it hard, trying to swallow the thing stuck in our throat.

The second trick is vomiting. If something is stuck in the throat, we can spit it out. We can use our hands to clear our throats to make ourselves feel like vomiting, and thus use the force of vomiting to spit out the stuck object.

The third trick is oranges or tangerines. We can find an orange or tangerine, wash it, and eat it in one big bite with the skin on. This will make it easier to swallow.

The fourth trick is banana. The flesh of the banana is sticky and slippery, making it easy to swallow.

The fifth trick is aged vinegar. The acidity of vinegar can soften things and make them easier to swallow, but not everyone can drink aged vinegar. Therefore, we can drink some acidic beverages such as apple cider vinegar.

Tip six: go get checked. If you have tried all the above methods but they don't work, then we can go to the hospital for a check-up to avoid causing throat diseases.

First aid for baby with something stuck in throat

If something gets stuck in the baby's throat, parents should have first aid knowledge, but it is unlikely to be able to solve the problem completely, so parents should be prepared to go to the hospital after it happens, and then take reasonable first aid. When choosing a hospital, parents do not necessarily have to go to a children's hospital. They can choose a large, regular hospital nearby. When a child chokes on a foreign object in his trachea, parents should not panic. First, they should clear the vomit or food residue in the nasal cavity and oral cavity, but do not try to dig out the foreign object in the trachea with their hands. It is recommended to try the following techniques to induce the removal of foreign objects: 1. Abdominal push method: Place the child in supine position on the table, and the rescuer places his hand between the navel and xiphoid process of the abdomen, applies appropriate pressure upward close to the abdomen, and places the other hand gently on the chest wall, applying appropriate pressure upward and into the chest cavity to increase the pressure in the abdominal and chest cavities. Repeating this several times can cause the foreign object to be coughed out. 2. Patting back method: In standing position, the rescuer stands behind the child, places one arm on the child's chest, supports the child, and uses the base of the other hand to give continuous, rapid and forceful pats on the spine in the interscapular area to facilitate the expulsion of foreign matter. 3. Inverted back-patting method: Suitable for infants and young children. Lift their legs upside down, let their heads hang down, and pat their backs lightly. The foreign body will be forced to be coughed out through its own gravity and the impact of the gas in the chest cavity during choking. 4. Heimlich Maneuver: Professor Henry Heimlich is a senior surgeon. After repeated research and numerous animal experiments, he invented a first aid method that uses residual gas in the lungs to form an airflow to flush out foreign objects.
