A member asked:
Would i be coughing if i inhaled food i keep thinking i always inhale food but never cough but throat is tight from anxiety how do i treat this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely event: In an active person if food enters respiratory tract you choke or for a very small particle you get violent cough Just don't worry , see your doctor . Only in debilitated bedridden person aspiration is possible due to tube feeding .
