<human>: I just had a banana a little while ago which by the way I havent had in a long time. Anyways I was falling asleep & out of nowhere I started to cough uncontrollably felt like something was stuck in my throat like I wanted to throw up/choking at the same time.. Is it some type of allergic reaction?
<bot>: Hello, Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:1. From your description, I would not think of allergic reaction at first. I would think it as a kind of "irritating" cough, may be related to rapidly swallowing of a food or inadequate water intake after food.2. As it happened for the first time, I would not suggest you to think of allergy to banana. Allergy to banana is possible but not that common. In the future, I would suggest you to chew banana slowly and swallow it well (avoid fast eating and swallowing) and if possible, have some liquid and stay upright after taking to food. Hope above suggestion will be helpful to you. Wish you the best of the health ahead. Thank you & Regards.
