A member asked:
Can the wind pipe be bruised or swollen by squeezing it and if so what are the results of the bruise and how long will it last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bruising windpipe: The windpipe (trachea) can be stretched by a hard neck squeeze. If there is any coughing up of blood or shortness of breath, see medical care right away. If not, and there is no change in your voice, take Ibuprofen for 7- 10 days to help remove inflammation. If symptoms don't clear, go see your nearby ENT doctor.
