I Choked On A Large Pill This Morning And Couldn't

I choked on a large pill this morning and couldn't breathe. My husband did the Heimlich which allowed me to breathe again. However, the pill did not pop out and I didn't sense swallowing it. Now, this afternoon, I have pain under my right rib cage. I keep telling myself it's from the way I've been sitting but have a nagging worry about whether it's due to the pill.
