Foreign Bodies in the Throat

Foreign bodies in the throat can be a serious concern, especially when objects like food, coins, small toys, or other items become lodged in the airway or esophagus. These foreign objects can cause choking, difficulty swallowing, pain, or discomfort. If left untreated, they may lead to more severe complications such as infection or injury to the throat.
