What should I do if I choke on drinking water, what should I do if I choke on drinking water?

The throat is the common passage between food and air. The trachea is in the front and the esophagus is in the back. Do not interfere with each other. If you don't pay attention to drinking water and eating, it is easy to choke on the esophagus and choke.

If you are an adult, then you can lower your head, hammer down your chest hard, and cough a few times.

If it's a child, pat them on the back and then help them, don't be reckless.

If it's a baby, don't be impatient. Pat the back gently, because the baby's swallowing ability is weak, the feeding water can be fed little by little, such as with a bottle, straw cup is much safer.

When drinking and swallowing, the larynx has an ascending process, and the larynx ascends and the hanging hangs completely over the trachea (open esophagus), and water flows down the ascending open esophagus, and then the larynx descends to its original position. It's the process of taking a sip of water. Then swallow the second and third sipes in turn, repeat the process of rising and falling one by one, and you will hear the sound of cooing and drinking.

1. Choking is usually too urgent, and before the larynx has completed a complete action, it slips into the trachea. Or talk while drinking water (the trachea is of course open when you speak).

2. Genetic factors, some people have defects in the physiological structure of the larynx and will pass the defects on to the next generation. That is, we often say that some people often "choke their throats" (Weihai dialect), and that's it.

Do you often get choked? Pay attention next time.

Do you know the role of the Adam's apple? It moves up and down when we eat, because our trachea and esophagus are connected, and when we eat, the Adam's apple will go up to seal the trachea to prevent food from entering and choking, so it is best for us to talk or laugh less when we eat, because when we talk or laugh, we will exhale.

If you choke, gently pat him on the chest or back, and drink water when he is breathless!

If the patient chokes on drinking water, it is necessary to consider whether there is a local disease of the ear, nose and throat. Patients are advised to go to the ENT for laryngoscopy to further determine whether they have a localized ENT disease. In addition, cerebrovascular disease is more common, which can cause bilateral throat muscle paralysis due to bilateral pyramidal tract involvement, causing uncoordinated swallowing function, choking on drinking and eating, and severe patients can lead to aspiration or even suffocation, which is life-threatening.

Once this situation occurs, it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to make a diagnosis in time to avoid delaying diagnosis and treatment.

Choking on drinking water is generally not a big problem and does not require special treatment. Because after drinking water, the human body will immediately expel the water choked into the trachea through violent coughing, in fact, a small part cannot be discharged immediately, and it will gradually slow with the breathing movement.

Choking on drinking water, and in daily life, it is also a common occurrence that chokes. A few coughs are good slowly, choking, a few coughs, and it is slowly fine.

Choking on drinking water, which can also happen in normal people. The throat and the trachea are very close together, and when you drink water quickly, the water enters the trachea, and you will choke. Pay attention to drink slowly, or don't look up, the problem is easy to solve.

However, if you are choked all the time, then there may be some kind of disease related to the nervous system. The act of drinking water is simple, but it also has the activity of the swallowing nerves, all of which are directed by the brain. Go to the hospital for an examination, if it is just a problem with the swallowing nerve, it is better to say, if there is a condition of the cranial nerve, you must pay attention to it.

It may be due to damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve. It is also not excluded that it is a disease of gastroenterology.
