Question:

Anyway to check if there is a fish bone in your throat?

Just ate Fish and Chips recently and felt something hard and sharp go down. Problem is I have no idea if the bone is stuck in my throat or not. It's been 3 days already since the incident and I'm very paranoid about it.


Answers:

I was an employee in an emergency room for years. A Vietnamese came to the ER stating he had a fish bone in his throat. The doctor could not locate it. He came back the following day and with an endoscopy it was located and removed. If you are sure it is a fish bone, then you should insist on more than a doctor looking down your throat if he cannot find it.
