Suggest Remedy For Stucked Steroid Pill In Throat

I swallowed a small steriod pill that i'm taking because my lymph nodes in my throat are swallon. Now it feels like the pill is stuck there and won't go back down, but is trying to come back up. Is this possible and what can I do. Also is it possible it will choke me if it comes back up. It has been stuck there for at least an hour or 2

I is possiible though very rarely. but even in that case it should pass off within hours as soon as it melts down. I request you for thorough Throat check up and find any other cause.
