Does Choking And Spitting Up Of Food Require Medical Attention?
My daughter was eating dinner and a piece of hamburger meat went down the wrong pipe?
She spit up clear mucus but says it fees as if something is in her chest. She has eat and drank after and has to go spit up after. She is breathing and talking normal.
I'm just a worried mom

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, It could be swallowing difficulty at the time of eating but it might not be in trachea so it is nothing to worry, if no symptoms are there then it will be alright, it must be difficulty in swallowing at the time of eating and not the food gone in trachea, hope this information helps.
