Brief Answer:
No worries, will resolve.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Seed of strawberry is a small size object and will eventually be swallowed, you just keep taking liquids and solid diet, repeated swallowing reflexes will make sure seed is swallowed, salt water gargles will help as well. If the seed is still stuck and bothering, you may visit a nearby ER and they can dislodge the seed for you easily. Nothing to worry about.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
