A member asked:
My fiance has food stuck in his esophagus. he can breathe and speak. are there any home remedies or do we need to go to the er?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go to ER: While you can try to flush it down w/more fluids, food can get stuck. So get a professional to either monitor you or to extract it. In other words, go to er now. Don't wait.
