The food that you choked on irritated your throat. Because the ears, nose and throat are all interconnected, there is a chance that the irritation allowed some sort of virus or bacteria to get in and take hold. There is a lot of upper respiratory problems going around this time of year. If you press on the area under your eyes, around the cheekbones, and it is very tender, and if you have bright green mucus, it is probably a sinus infection. There is not a whole lot a doctor can do for a cold, except for the congestion, but if it is a sinus infection you may need antibiotics. At either rate, drink a lot of water and juices to help clear your system out.
Probably. If you get a fever see a doctor. Drink plenty of fluids.
