Basically useless vinegar, it may hurt the throat

Some people get stuck in fishbone and drink vinegar desperately. They think that vinegar can dissolve the fishbone made of calcium to soften the fishbone. After drinking vinegar, the softened fish bones will fall off the tissue. Is it really?

The fishbone ingredient is calcium, and vinegar can react with calcium. The fishbone will soften until dissolved in case of vinegar. However, the active ingredient of vinegar that we consume is acetic acid, and the chemical name is acetic acid. Generally, a bottle of edible vinegar has an acetic acid content of 4% to 6%. With such a low content, it will take a long time and lasting soaking to soften the fishbone.

The acetic acid contained in vinegar will burn young children's delicate esophageal mucosal burns, and the site of the fishbone stapling injury will be heavier and painful. It will also have a bad influence on the throat and may even cause acute laryngeal edema. Therefore, in addition to fishbone, vinegar is not only effective, but it may also hurt the laryngeal mucosa.

Eating has a role, but it is dangerous

People always feel that they can swallow the fishbone by eating stupid rice, stuffing their heads and swallowing.

Indeed, after some people had done so, the symptoms of sore throat had improved, and the food in groups was carrying fishbone from the original site. However, it should be noted that this method is only applicable to the case where the fishbone is fine and the parts to be barbed are relatively simple.

A considerable number of people will feel more and more painful after swallowing rice and steamed bread, because the food pushes shallower fishbone deeper, which may injure the throat mucous membrane and cause infection, swelling, and inflammation. Even pharyngeal edema causes suffocation.

What's more, the fish bones are squeezed by rice balls and steamed bread to reach the esophagus and pass through esophageal stenosis, piercing the esophagus, causing esophageal perforation, chest and mediastinal infections. The lower esophagus next to the trachea and aorta, once the larger and harder fishbone puncture the aorta, it will cause bleeding, the consequences could be disastrous. Therefore, there are risks in this method.

What should I do if I get stuck with a fishbone?

What should be done to get stuck with a fishbone?

First of all, you should immediately stop eating, do not even drink water, relax your throat to minimize swallowing movements, and ease your emotions. Because of emotional stress, it is easy to cause contraction of the throat muscles, foreign objects will be more tightly stuck.

If you are a child, you should first comfort them not to cry, so as not to inhale the fishbone into the throat or esophagus.

Immediately afterwards, you can bow your head and try to cough hard. The tiny fish bones will follow the air flow. Or stimulate the throat to induce nausea and vomiting, and promote the release of the fish bones.

It is of course best to get the fishbone out of your own efforts, but if it does not work, you have to use tools. You can use the chopsticks or spoon handle, tongue depressor, etc., to gently press the tongue to expose the tongue base, and use light to observe the size and position of the foreign body. If you don't find a big fishbone and you don't have a deep position, you can use a small forceps to gently pull it out.

If no fishbone is found, it means that the fishbone is in a deep position and it is difficult to pull it out. Or you can see the fishbone, but the fishbone is very thick and tight, and in these situations, you shouldn't pull out and avoid new wounds. Be sure to go to the hospital and ask a professional doctor for treatment. Use professional equipment and remove the fishbone as soon as possible in a sterile antibacterial environment.

If the fishbone is tied to the oropharynx, it can be pinched with tweezers without anesthetic. The position of the fishbone is too deep to be seen directly. The local anesthetic can be sprayed and removed under the indirect laryngoscope or fiber laryngoscope. If you don't see it yet, it is very likely that the fishbone has already entered the esophagus and you may have to do esophagoscopy. If the time for the fishbone card throat is too long and the throat and esophagus are red and swollen, we must first treat the swelling and then remove the fishbone.
