How do you get rid of a tiny piece of gum in your throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drink a lot of cold water, cough, eat some food and irritate your throat by smoking. Don't try to throw up, you could aspirate debris into your lungs. If you stop breathing, than the Heimlich maneuver has to be performed.
