Popcorn husk in throat

waterpik my friends, waterpik - like magic it's gone!

Well that was a horrible experience. Thanks to all who shared 1st desperate act: Jamming a toothbrush down my throat and sounding like I was dying trying to scratch the devil's seed off the back of my throat while gagging/half puking. FAIL. 2nd - Tried watermelon to try and dislodge it. FAIL. 3rd - Googled it: Thanks to you folks, the cracker option was what did it. I stuffed a bunch of bagel bites in my mouth and kept forcing myself to swallow. Used some Coke to lubricate when I was borderline choking. What a nightmare, goodbye forever popcorn and thanks friends!

Hello. Sorry I don't have any suggestion because I need them a well! I gurgled and coughed, drank loads of water, and made myself swallow bread, but then again,( like all of the people who officially won't eat popcorn anymore after what it did to them)...it didn't work! Please help me! I didn't know popcorn could hurt that much!

I just tried my waterpic, and it appears to have done the trick.

I just experienced the same thing. I scrapped the back of my tongue with a placker, I stuck my finger at the back of my throat, I used a Waterpik, gargle in salt, and all that did was irritate my throat. I never removed a popcorn shell but I had a sensation that something was there. Eventually I ignored that feeling and let my throat heal. I gargled with a mouthwash for mouth sores. In a week my throat healed and the feeling of a popcorn she'll being stuck in the back of my throat went away

Peanut butter on Ritz crackers dislodged the husk in the back of my throat.

no I just ate popcorn today and it's not "tonsilloliths"

Ice cream! I overheard an EMT tell someone "ice cream" & he was right.

i ate an apple and it helped me....popcorn is such a horrible food to eat..

I puked the 1st time I had a popcorn husk stuck at the back of my throat But the 2nd time which is now I coughed it out Man they hurt

Try drinking some water or tea. If that doesn't work, try eating some granola or rice cakes.

This might sound weird but get a flashlight and stick a pair of tweezers down :/ it feels weird but it works. Hope this helped :)

Cabat sharp white cheddar cheese worked quite well when nothing else did

Toothpaste!!! I loaded up my toothbrush and brushed my teeth really well and then didn't spit out the excess toothpaste and gargled the rest and the husk finally came loose! I tried pop and mouthwash and my finger and everything under the moon for a whole day and this worked in a second! Worth a try

I have no tonsils or adenoids and I am having this problem. Had them out when I was 7 because the tonsillitis was making it hard to breathe
