What should I do if I choke while eating?
When the throat is stuck, the main performance is that the patient can't talk. The patient will put his hand on his throat as a gesture to tell others that there is a foreign body in his throat. Infants and young children will suddenly cough, have abnormal sounds in their throats, have abnormal sounds when inhaling, and have difficulty breathing.

Because it is mainly the elderly and infants who are prone to foreign body throat, we should first pay attention to cutting food into small pieces and chewing slowly when eating. Especially rice cakes and other foods, be careful not to stick to your throat. Secondly, it's best not to joke when eating, and don't drink too much wine before and during eating. For infants, don't walk and play with your mouth full, and be careful not to put small items around infants.

After a foreign body is stuck in the throat, if the patient is conscious, but can't cough out the foreign body through hard coughing or weakness, others can hold the patient's abdomen with their arms and squeeze the abdomen inward and upward with one hand, or the patient can squeeze the abdomen at the corner of the table or chair to urge the foreign body to be discharged. If the family members don't have some common sense of rescue, it's best to call the hospital emergency number at the first time to tell the patient's location, age and what happened in detail. The dispatcher will judge and guide how to give first aid.
