Four seas net: eat fish carelessly stuck in the throat, can not get out, do not do this:

1. Don't eat too much

It's said that you can take fish bones to your stomach by swallowing rice, pancakes and steamed bread.

However, one mouthful of rice goes down, and the original stab in the throat reaches the throat. Another mouthful of steamed bread reaches the esophagus. However, no matter how much you swallow it, the bones will only stick into the deeper skin. Believe me:

2. Don't drink too much water

It's said that drinking a lot of water can also bring the fishbone into your stomach.

However, just like swallowing a meal, a strong swallowing action can only push the originally shallow stab deeper. You can't expect fish bones to come out by drinking water. After all:

3. Don't drink vinegar

It is said that the ingredient of fishbone is calcium. Vinegar can react with calcium. Fishbone will be soft when it is treated with vinegar.

Do you think the fish are soft and soft in bone when you eat vinegar fish, stewed fish, sweet and sour carp and west lake vinegar fish?

4. Don't eat vitamin C

It is said that taking a few vitamin C tablets can also soften fish bones.

People who believe in this method think that the taste of vitamin C is sour, which is the same as vinegar.

5. Don't pick out the fishbone with your hand

It is said that the fishbone is stuck and needs to be pulled out by hand.

It's unsanitary. Can you pick it up? What do you think is that a column is not clean. It comes back and forth in your throat

6. Don't expect to eat orange peel to soften fishbone

Hearsay......

The above are all kinds of ways of dealing with fish and stabbing by mistake, some of which are absurd and uninhibited, but some of them are still believed by many people that these ways of dealing with mistakes will affect people's daily life, while others will endanger people's lives.

So what's the right way to do it when a fishbone gets stuck in the throat in daily life?

It depends on the size of the fishbone and where it's stuck.

Although we often say that the fishbone sticks to the throat, in fact, the most common part of the fishbone is in the oropharynx. This position is relatively simple, including the tonsil, around the tonsil and the shallow part of the tongue root, as shown in the following figure:

If these jaws get stuck in the fishbone, and the fishbone is small, the patient can try to cough hard. Many times, the small fishbone will fall off with the air flow. You can also try looking in the mirror or with the help of relatives and friends to find fish bones in these parts, and then deal with them.

But!

If the fishbone is very hard and sharp, or can't be found with the help of relatives and friends, or if the pain in the neck and chest is obvious, you should go to a doctor immediately.  

Because the fishbone is not stuck in the oropharynx, but in the laryngopharynx, which is generally difficult to see and needs to be treated in the hospital.

If you swallow into the esophagus carelessly, there are four strictures in the esophagus, among which the fishbone is most likely to get stuck in the first stricture, namely the entrance of the esophagus. If swallowed forcibly at this time, it is possible to push the foreign body to the level of the second stenosis, i.e. the aortic arch, or even directly penetrate into the aorta, or through the esophagus, resulting in esophageal perforation and mediastinal infection, which may be life-threatening in extreme cases.

The otolaryngology and digestive department of the hospital often receive the patients who eat fish stings. The doctors will use laryngoscope, gastroscope, esophagoscope or even thoracotomy to get fish stings. So don't underestimate the matter of getting stuck in the fishbone. It will be very troublesome to deal with it carelessly.

However, compared with a fishbone stuck in the throat, it is easier to encounter: after eating the fish, I feel a thing in my throat is very uncomfortable.

It doesn't have to be that the fishbone is stuck. If there is only foreign body sensation without obvious tingling, and it does not affect swallowing, then generally the fishbone is relatively small, or the fishbone is scratched but has fallen off.

In this case, you can observe first. If you feel pain or the symptoms of foreign bodies get worse, then go to a doctor.

In a word, no matter when you encounter a fishbone stuck in your throat, don't be careless, and don't try those bizarre methods.

Light cough, observation and going to hospital are the best means.

Professional gastroenterologists are invited to answer the questions.

Time is life. If you suspect that you have swallowed fish bones, but the sore throat, chest pain and chest tightness are obvious, please see a doctor immediately (in general, there are 24-hour oral and gastroscopy examinations in large hospitals). If there is no special discomfort, you can also see a doctor the next day during normal working hours. Once more than 48-72 hours, the abscess will form, leading to the need for surgical treatment.

First: eating rice, drinking vinegar and drinking water are all improper treatments. There are many articles on the shell, please refer to them by yourself. Someone might think that's how he cured himself. That's your luck: the fish bone is not embedded, only scratches the digestive tract or the fish bone is embedded superficially. Once the fish bone is incarcerated, the above treatment will only aggravate the esophageal damage and even lead to massive bleeding.

Second: the best plan: go to the hospital with relevant treatment equipment, and the upper one can go to the Department of facial features, and the deeper one can go to the gastroscopy room for treatment.

You can see from the picture that there are actually three narrow places in the esophagus. Fish bones are easy to get stuck in the narrow places. The second stenosis is the appearance of the aorta. If the irregular treatment is used, there may be massive bleeding (which is fatal esophageal bleeding in a short period of time) in the second narrow and stuck fish bone.

3. At least 200 emergency gastroscopes should be done in the United States. They suggest endoscopic treatment in a hospital for esophageal foreign bodies. It costs 200-300 yuan to make an emergency gastroscope in our country. Please cherish your life and go to the hospital. It's too cost-effective.

PS: some friends have pointed out that it is related to the size of fishbone. Yes, it depends on the size of the fishbone. But even a small fish bone may cause serious consequences, but a relatively large or special shape fish bone is less likely. In fact, even a slightly larger fishbone is not likely to cause massive bleeding, but in medicine, it is not worth the risk. Once the above consequences occur, the rescue is difficult and the prognosis is poor. And gastroscopy in China is really cheap. In addition, there are a variety of clinical cases (such as the recovery of malignant tumor patients, sudden death of young patients, sudden death of late pregnant women on the night of health examination on the same day. I've seen it before), no doctor will deny the occurrence of small probability events.
