A member asked:
Choked on water and i coughed most of it out (i think) at the time, but now (about 18 hours later) i have a mild cough. could this be anxiety or what?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anxiety: If you choked on a little water, and all came out and then you are probably anxious unless you aspirated a lot then you should get checked up. I think you should be fine.

My cough is interesting; I feel as if the epiglottis is not protecting the entrance to my trachea, thus allowing saliva, post nasal drip,fluid, food (chewed and unchewed), water, etc. In so, I cough to ensure nothing is going on. Just anxiety or what?
