Chocking : Did you chock? Did you laugh while eating? If nothing like this happened most likely your pain have nothing to do with chips. With chocking foreign body most often go the right side. Not left. Just calm down for a while and check your breath again in 20-30 min.

Likely unrelated: Give it a day or so, if the pain does not go away, it would be prudent to see a doctor. You may take Tylenol for the pain. Do not drink alcohol for one day after taking Tylenol, better yet, do not drink alcohol ever. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
