I think i have a tiny piece of plastic stuck in my throat. it feels like it may be stuck behind my uvula. ive tried everything to get rid of it, but nothing works. should i see a doctor, or wait for it to go away on its own?

Stuck or Scratch?: Sometimes a sharp object can cause a scratch in the throat, which can make it feel like something is still there. You could have something actually stuck however. If you're having worsening pain, or very painful swallowing or speaking, you need to be seen urgently.
