Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello. I am worried that I may have aspirated a spaghetti noodle. Is this even possible? When I put my fork in my mouth, the spaghetti was surprisingly too hot so I inhaled/exhaled a couple of times with the fork still in my mouth trying to cool it down. After I did his, my throat felt a little funny and I coughed a little bit, but nothing came out of it. Now I'm worried maybe the weird feeling was food going in the windpipe. Is this possible? Would I have wanted to cough more to get it out or is it possible it just slipped right down?
