[|Human|] I swallowed a very tiny pointy chicken bone (maybe half the size of a dime) while eating dinner and I then had a sharp pain in the right (almost middle) of my chest). It starts to go away then I burn and I feel it again (then it goes away again). This has only happened twice so far (the burping). What should I do? Are there any self remedies? Am I just freaked out and over exaggerating?
[|AI|]  **1. Swallowed/ingested foreign body [FB] requires examination, initially by your physician who might order an x-ray to identify the presence or absence of any FB [chicken bone] or signs of perforation [sharp pain] and later by a specialist who may do a flexible laryngoscopy under local anesthesia to identify the position of the FB.2. If your doctor or specialist thinks that the FB is small, you may be given antibiotics and asked to return frequently to be checked thoroughly. 3. since your present condition is stable, conservative management with follow-up at 24 hours will suffice.PS.  You should see a doctor if there is suspicion of an FB lodged. Do not wait for complications to arise or go for self remedies.
