Fish bone stuck in throat. doesn't hurt when swallowing saliva. have a feeling it's there but it doesn't hurt at all. should i worry or wait it out?

Fish bone treatment: You might try either eating a large piece of bread with peanut butter, or a banana to dislodge the fish bone. If this does not work and it is still there after a day, a visit to the ENT doctor is in order.
