Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Chest
I swallowed a chip and I did not chew it enough, it hurt going the whole way down and now I am having throat pain (I'm thinking from it being sharp) and I have mild pain right under my chest that almost feels like sore muscles when I push on it. What could be wrong?

Hello
the pain can be due to the damage to the lining of the food passage due to the chip.
Dont worry, avoid hot and spicy food and take a bland diet for 2-3 days , it will heal!
If you develop worsening of pain, chest pain ,fever or vomiting, meet your doctor immediately.
