What All Symptoms Should I Check Before Meeting A Doctor After Accidentally Swallowing Plastic?

I was making smoothies last night; a piece of plastic broke inside the juicer and chopped up in small jagged pieces. I did not realize this till after I drank my smoothie. After and today it has felt like something is stuck in my esophagus; what other symptoms should I look for before going to the ER?
