Can You Swallow your Tongue???!


Question:

Can You Swallow your Tongue???


Answers:

no you can't. It's firmly attached at the bottom of your throat. It can slip back and obstruct your airway though. That's why a breathing tube is placed for people that are so unconscious that they can no longer protect their own airway - the tongue is in the way.
