Hello I swallowed what I think was a chicken bone today. I could feel it in my throat and swallowed bread to push it down. I ate dinner tonight without any problems, but now I can feel discomfort in my chest. More so when I lay down. Is it possible that the bone is in my chest?
Hello, I have gone through your query. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Your sensation if discomfort is mostly due to friction and ulceration caused by bone to food pipe, most time such sensation lasts for few days. Since now you are able to swallow without feeling of obstruction sticking of bone is less likely.However, if your symptoms are persistent you should consult a gastroenterologist for endoscopy.my best wishes, Chat Doctor.
