What Are The Complications With Apple Stuck In The Throat?
I was drinking a drink that has cut up apple chunks in it. I accidentally swallowed about 2-3 pieces of apple. I managed to throw up about 2 but don t know if I accidentally swallowed another and if it could potentially be harmful. I heard a story of a man getting food stuck in his lung and almost dying. Do you think I should be okay?
Hi, don't worry you will be fine, if it was stuck in your lung, you would have have experienced severe cough and breathlessness, since you don't have these symptoms it means food has passed through normal passage.
