[|Human|] I was eating popcorn and I felt a kernel go down the wrong tube while I was laughing/singing with my boyfriend. Drank lots of water/lemonade. Still feel like it is there although I don t feel as if it is bothering me as much as it was. Am I at risk for any type of blockage, any type of problem? Should I attempt to get it out or should I let nature take it s course and get itself out? Age 27 Sex Female Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 114 lbs. No current allergies to medication, foods or otherwise, smoker of cigarettes and drinker of alochol
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion if you are not having any symptoms at present than no need to worry. As coughing will remove it from wind pipe. But if you are having symptoms like1. Chest pain2. Fever with expextoration3. Shortness of breathThan you should definitely get done bronchoscopy. As chances of popcorn in trachea is high if you develop these symptoms. Otherwise, no need to worry. And still you want to get it checked whether it is in wind pipe IR not, get done bronchoscopy. It is 10 minute procedure only.
