First aid for fish splinter :
Eating fish and accidentally getting the splinter stuck in the throat can also cause a lot of trouble, and if it causes a fire, you may have to seek medical attention for a long time.
First-aid measures:
Smaller fish spines can sometimes slip down naturally with swallowing. If you feel a sting, shine a flashlight on the oropharynx and use a small spoon to depress the back of the tongue. Carefully check the pharyngeal isthmus, mainly the entrance of the laryngopharynx on both sides, because this is the place where fish spines are most likely to get stuck, if you find that the spines are not too big and not too deep, you can use long tweezers to pinch them out.
Precautions:
1. Larger or deeper fish spines, no matter how to swallow, the pain does not diminish, the entrance to the throat on both sides and around the fish spines are missing, you should go to the hospital for treatment.
2. When the fishbone is stuck in the throat, the patient should not be allowed to swallow a large piece of steamed bread, pancakes and other food. Although sometimes this can be done to get rid of the fishbone, but sometimes this inappropriate treatment, not only did not get rid of the fishbone, but also to make it deeper, more inappropriate to take out, serious infection and inflammation will be more trouble.
3. If the fishbone does not fall out of the mouth when swallowing rice, you should not do it again. Sometimes the fishbone has fallen out, but there is still the feeling of a splinter. So wait and see, if you still feel uncomfortable, you must go to the hospital and ask the doctor. This is the most appropriate way to deal with a fishbone injury.
4. It is not true that the fishbone is in the throat, but most of the fishbone is in the root of the tongue or the entrance of the throat.

If the foreign body irritates the laryngeal mucosa, it will cause severe coughing and dyspnea due to reflex laryngospasm and foreign body obstruction, and there may be varying degrees of wheezing, loss of voice, sore throat and so on. Most seriously, if the foreign body is large and embedded in the vocal folds, death by asphyxiation can quickly result.
When you have a fishbone lodged in your throat, you can first try to press the front part of your tongue with a spoon or the handle of a toothbrush, and look carefully at the root of your tongue, tonsils and the back wall of the pharynx under a bright light, and then use tweezers or chopsticks to pinch out the splinter if you can find it. If the above methods do not work, or if the pain worsens and the foreign body sensation becomes more obvious after swallowing liquid food, you should go to the emergency room immediately. Never forcefully swallow vegetables or steamed buns, thinking that you can bring the thorn down the esophagus, which will only make the thorn lodged in a deeper part or stuck in the esophagus, resulting in more serious consequences.
If the throat is stuck in other foreign objects, one way is to try to spit out the foreign body; or head down and bend over, small children will be picked up head down, lying prone between the legs of the rescuer, the rescuer with the palm of his hand to slap the patient's back in the middle of the two shoulder blades 4, such as foreign body is still not discharged, can repeat the above action.
