Veg Cap Pill Stuck In Throat, Pushed Back Up By Throat Muscles. Yogurt, Cookies, Bananas Unable To Dislodge It. Cause Of Concern?
Hi, I am not a member. I was searching for anwers when I came upon this site. I often have a veg cap pill stuck in my throat and I can feel it being pushed back up by the muscles in my throat. Yogurt, thin cookies, pieces of bananas, or even large cups of hot water do not dislodge the pill. I am getting concerned. Should I be talking to my doctor about this problem?
