Hello, about 6 hours ago I swallowed a piece of nachos chip wrong, at first I could not swallow it but then I did and it hurt pretty bad, but not for long. Now I feel fine, but I feel like something is in my throat. And im really worried because internet says im gonna die. Please help.

Hi the nachos chip that you swallowed without chewing probably got stuck in your esophagus/food pipe. When you forcefully swallowed it might have damaged your food pipe tissue. This is not so bad right now but it might get infected and cause blockage of food pipe later so I would suggest you to take an antibiotic as soon as you can. You can consult for prescription or go to your local doctor.

1. You would be the first human to die of trying to eat a nacho chip if this happens. 2. Do not worry, use a straw and sip fluids so that nacho chip gets soaked and moves down food pipe. 3. If pain persists, get an upper gi endoscopy. 4. You can take antiinflammatory (ibuprofen /paracetamol) for relief. 5. Consult for more details.
