Will a chicken bone stuck in the throat be digested automatically?

When a chicken bone gets stuck in the throat, it is difficult to digest it by yourself. You must receive timely and effective treatment. If it is relatively small, you can try swallowing steamed buns. If there is still no good improvement, you should go to the hospital to remove it in time to avoid delaying the disease. This situation is relatively dangerous. There have been reports that self-treatment in this situation may cause foreign objects to cut the artery and even pose a great threat to life safety.

What to do if a chicken bone gets stuck in your throat

1. If the wound is large or deeply pierced, and the pain does not subside no matter how you swallow, and if there are no bones on both sides and around the entrance of the throat, you should go to the hospital for treatment. 2. If the chicken bones still don’t fall out after you swallow a lot of rice, don’t do it yourself. Sometimes the bone has fallen off, but the tingling feeling remains. So you need to wait and observe. If you still feel unwell, be sure to go to the hospital to see a doctor. This is also the most appropriate way to deal with a bone stuck in the throat. 3. The saying that chicken bones get stuck in the throat is not correct. In most cases, the bones grow at the root of the tongue or the entrance of the throat.

Preventing esophageal foreign bodies:

The first thing is to educate children not to play or laugh with food in their mouths; the second thing is to chew slowly when eating, which is not only conducive to the digestion and absorption of food, but also can avoid the occurrence of foreign objects in the esophagus.

The esophagus is also called the food pipe. When there is a foreign object stuck, it is called an esophageal foreign body or esophageal foreign body. The causes of esophageal foreign bodies in children are the same as those of pharyngeal foreign bodies. [align=left] There are three physiological narrow parts of the esophagus: upper, middle and lower. The upper end of the esophagus is the narrowest, so foreign objects are most likely to get stuck there. Once a foreign body occurs in the esophagus, pain will occur. The pain may be in the neck or behind the sternum, and the pain will be aggravated when swallowing.

Dysphagia may also occur, which is caused by foreign body blockage and pain. Sharp foreign objects often puncture the esophagus and cause local inflammation. Severe damage and spread of inflammation can cause serious complications such as mediastinitis, lung infection or esophageal tracheal fistula. Esophageal foreign bodies at the second physiological narrowing site are close to the aorta and may cause fatal massive bleeding due to the loss of the aorta, which is very dangerous.
