Hi,
Today after work I went for a pizza with a friend. It had a lot of stringy cheese on it that was difficult to eat and at one point I felt a big long sring of it in my throat and it was very uncomfortable. I kind of tried to force it back up into my mouth rather than coughing (i still had food in my mouth) with my throat muscles and sort of succeeder but kept on swallowing and breathing unintentionally so I'm not really sure what happened.
Afterwards I coughed a fair amount and had some water but now I am worried I aspirated the cheese, especially if it was a fair amount.
I feel OK and can eat and drink normally now if not chewing a lot and my chest feels a bit funny but that might be cause of the forced coughing. Please help, I am worried.
