Go to ER: You need to be evaluated by a medical professional. You could have serious respiratory problems requiring treatment or observation. Those things are unlikely , but only an evaluation will tell.

A 18-year-old female asked:
I accidentally inhaled a singular rice into what I think was my windpipe. I didnt cough, gag, or feel like I was choking but I assume thats because a rice is so small and probably wont block the airway. Does that mean the rice is stuck in my lung?
