A member asked:

How can i get part of popcorn unstuck from the back of my mouth/throat? for the past few days ive felt like theres food stuck in my throat and i feel like its still there. is this serious? at times ive also felt chest pressure, but im stressed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

People occasionally have a minor injury to the swallow tube that opens a sore in the tissue. These can feel like something stuck there. Ingesting a bit of honey or Karo may be sticky enough to pull anything down. It may self-heal over time but can be evaluated with a camera inserted down your throat. If it bothers you, have it evaluated.
