What the H Happened (almost choked)

[Anonymous]

I almost choked on a piece of muffin. I coughed it up myself but now my throat burns and I have this terrible pressure behind my nose. It almost feels like when you accidentally inhale/drink chlorinated pool water.

When I coughed it up there was no liquid coming up with it —-I could understand that.

I tried blowing my nose and eating a spoonful of applesauce to calm down the fire in the back of my throat but it didn’t help.

My ears are clogged too I just realized.

I assume all this will go away soon — but what can I do to hasten it, or at least be more comfortable?!

you probably scratched your throat. drink some milk or tea with honey, and plenty of cool water. if it keeps happening, see a doctor--you might have a stricture or some other issue.

Go to the ER.

Muffin in sinus? Go to ER.

You could be coming down with something. A muffin crumb landed on an irritated part of your throat and triggered the coughing, etc. Gargle with warm saltwater and take advil.

Did you not chew? Do you take big bites? Was it insanely dry? Trying to prevent this.
