Feeling Of Food Stuck Behind Nostril In Nasal Cavity After Coughing While Eating Food. Suggestions?

Good Afternoon, I Was eating lunch and as I was chewing and swallowing the food I coughed and it now feels as if there is food stuck behind my right nostril, feels as if it is in my nasla cavity. I have felt this sensation before and usually the food comes out if I attempt to clear my throat...is there anything I can do to help get it out?

Hello,
The food particles behind the nose will go down on there own .
You can just do steam inhalations and put normal saline nasal drops -- if you are getting a bad feeling.
Take care for reflux as the reflux will expose the food pipe ,with acidic contents of stomach,and prevent from irritation.
to prevent this take water in between meals.
