I guess you do have a point there, would have to be a larger fish bone to totally block the airway.
My roommate suggested to eat a piece of bread to help it go down. I dunno, seems like that should work, but if it didn’t then that seems like it would make matters worse.
I got a fish bone stuck in my throat when I was a kid. My mother tried pulling it out with her fingers, tried pliers, and when that wasn’t working, she then called the hospital (back when you were allowed to do that, now we have to call Telehealth). The person who she spoke to told her to make some well done toast and have me eat it. Worked perfectly. The toast, once chewed, wraps around the bone and gums it up so it passes through your digestive system.
