Suggest Treatment To Remove The Chicken Bone From The Throat
A few days ago I was eating burnt chicken and a bone got stuck in my throat, it feels like a toothpick and it feels like it s very close to stabbing holes in the sides of my esophagus. I saw a doctor who gave me pink medicine and said to swish, gargle then swallow, I can t remember what else he said but he said to see an ENT doctor next month if it feels like the bone is still there, does this pink medicine do anything and should I see the ENT doctor right away? Will it end up puncturing my esophagus and stomach if I don t see the ENT doctor?

Hello
Please! if you still feel that something is stuck in your throat and your pain or difficulty in swallowing is increasing , meet your ent doctor as soon as possible. He will do an endoscopy of your throat and find out if the bone is stuck or not and guide you accordingly.
