Fish and fish soup is popular for its delicious and nutritious taste, but at the same time, if you are not careful, it can also bring you trouble – fish spikes stuck in the throat. This, Xiao Wang is deeply experienced! Last Saturday at noon, the family was eating lunch happily as usual, chatting about family matters as they ate, laughing and enjoying the atmosphere. Suddenly, Xiao Wang’s throat a stabbing pain, like a fish thorn stuck in the same, can not swallow can not spit, the family saw the situation is very anxious, the mother then let Xiao Wang swallow rice balls, gulping spinach, the results are not helpful; wife brought vinegar for him to drink, but Xiao Wang still feel the fish thorn still relentlessly stuck in the throat, the pain is unbearable ……. He was accompanied by his family and came to the Department of Otolaryngology of Dongguan Eighth Hospital, where he met the newly introduced expert, Dr. Jan Jiang, who was on duty. After asking him about what happened, he first examined his throat carefully with an indirect laryngoscope under surface anesthesia and found no fish spike. A fish spike, about 1 cm long, was not too thick. The doctor carefully removed the fish spike with foreign body forceps, and Xiao Wang immediately felt relief from the pain in his throat and was much more comfortable. Here, Dr. Jan Jiang solemnly reminds everyone: you should try to chew and swallow slowly when eating, to avoid rushing to eat, or gulping fish soup without regard to the fish spike mixed in the soup. Once you get stuck, don’t panic, open your mouth wide, use a small spoon to depress your tongue and make a long “ah~” sound, and ask someone to observe with the help of a flashlight whether there are fish spines in the mouth and on both sides of the uvula (commonly known as the uvula), if you see fish spines, try to clip them out with tweezers or thin chopsticks. If you are unsuccessful in clamping the fish spike yourself, or if you cannot see the fish spike but there is an obvious stinging sensation in the throat, you should immediately go to the hospital and ask an otorhinolaryngologist for further examination to clarify where the fish spike is stuck, and do not use the following methods: 1) swallowing rice balls or steamed buns in a large mouth, or swallowing spinach or leeks, etc. Sometimes this method can push the fish spike into the esophagus, but it is more risky and may make the fish spike deeper, or even pierce the esophagus in the narrow part. This method can sometimes push the fish spike into the esophagus, but it is risky and may make the fish spike deeper and even pierce the esophageal wall in the narrow part of the esophagus, injuring the arterial vessels and causing life-threatening hemorrhage. Xiao Wang listened to the doctor’s knowledge, he was really shocked and felt very scared, did not expect a small fish spike has such a great danger! He said he would be careful when eating fish and drinking fish soup in the future, not only to pay attention to himself, but also to tell his family and friends: fish spike stuck in the throat should not be taken lightly, swallowing rice and drinking vinegar is not reliable, delaying the disease is not allowed, scientific treatment is most important.
