Drinking vinegar for a fishbone is useless. The concentration of vinegar is low, not enough to soften the fishbone, and drinking vinegar has no clear therapeutic effect on fishbone. Drinking vinegar is a kind of folk remedy, not based on scientific evidence, not enough to soften the fishbone, and even irritate the mucous membrane of the throat, aggravate the burning pain in the throat, foreign body sensation and other uncomfortable symptoms, so you can’t drink vinegar to treat the fishbone. Patients with fishbone stuck in the throat can try to vomit, it is possible to spit out the fishbone, if the attempt is ineffective, it is recommended to go to the emergency department of the hospital or otorhinolaryngology department in a timely manner, laryngoscopy by a professional doctor, to clarify the location of the fishbone, and the use of foreign body forceps to take out the fishbone. Patients should not blindly believe in the prescription on their own, so as not to delay the condition.
