What Is The Heaviness In My Lungs After Sucking Food Into My Lungs?
Hello, my name is Mia Clark. I was chewing a bite of cheeseburger quesadilla when my son walked in and asked me a question that made me angry, so I took a quick breath to answer him and I believe I sucked a lil food into my lungs, I know brilliant, lol. I tried to cough it back out but I don t know if I was successful. My lungs are hurting and feel very heavy. Please tell me what I should do?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the lung would be clear because if there is something inside the lung the this may caused difficulty in breathing, suffocation, and this would be medical emergency, still to rule out the possibility of some food particles inside the lung better get done the X-Ray of chest, else this is nothing to worry, take care.
