Last night I accidently swallowed some gum and immediately it feels resembling it is stuck in my throat. I tried drinking cold wet, hot tea, eating bread and swallowing rime and nothing seem to work. Any other suggestions. It's irritating me to the point where I am thinking around going to see my doctor.
Answer:
If it is really bothersome, you may want to visit your doctor or the ER. It could be life-threatening if it suddenly moves and blocks your airway. My guess is the gum is stuck (perhaps close by your epiglottis which is the clover-looking flap that closes when you swallow so you don't aspirate or get fluid or food contained by your lungs) in an nouns where it will not come out on it's own. Maybe the gum isn't stuck at adjectives and some organ in your throat (such as your thyroid) is enlarged. See a doctor, please!
r u kid me sorry I have seriously never heared of that going on
Maybe a long tube with some gum attached to the stop will get it out
Are you sure it's stuck surrounded by your throat? I've never heard of that stirring. It may just be within your head.
