Swallowed fishbone and stuck in your throat: 3 things to do to remove it
Do you swallow fishbone and it stuck and scratched your throat? There are three things you can do to remove fishbone from your throat.
Will fishbone dissolve in the throat, or can a fishbone stuck in your throat kill you? These are questions some kids always asked when a fishbone gets stuck in their throats. However, swallowing fish bones by accident isn’t just for kids. It can happen to anyone, so I intend the information in this article for all ages.
Three things you can do to get rid of a fishbone that is stuck in your throat:
Cough
A powerful or rather forceful cough can dislodge some fish bones that get stuck in our throat. If you notice a bone is stuck in your throat, you should consider coughing hard for a few seconds to see if it has dislodged the ridge. If it doesn’t come off, try other alternatives listed in this article.
Banana
Banana is a very sweet fruit that can help you get rid of the bone in your throat. They are smooth, and eating bananas immediately can help nuzzle the bone from your throat to your stomach. Don’t swallow heavy things, banana would do the trick to push it down safely and harmlessly.
Drink olive oil
When we say drink olive oil, it does not mean drink a bottle full of olive oil. It is a lubricant and as such, perfectly suited to dislodge the ridges of anyone’s throat. Simply take two to three spoons of olive oil and drink it to lubricate your throat enough to facilitate the bone’s peaceful sliding through your throat down to your stomach.
