I have been eating some shrimp for dinner - and part of one of the shells is stuck in my throat. Nothing toally serious, but it hurts like hell, eating bread won't clear it, gulping water won't clear it, and neither will caughing like a dog.

I need me throat cleared up now. Any suggestions?

PLEASE respond.

Because it is just mild pain - I am still breathing, able to talk, bitch and moan.

Will bagels work any better?

Find out what eats shrimp. Eat one of those...alive.

Tried the peanut butter, is helping.

Called the doc, he told me to puke - then all those goddam shrimp go to waste, to be eaten by some fish after it gets processed thru my sink/sewer/whatever. That will not happen on my watch.

Macrophages? Oh Holy Christ, now I wish I had payed attention in those bio clases so many years ago.

How far down your throat is the pain? Can you reach the area with needle nose pliars?

And no way in HELL am I gagging on one of those tonsil-tweezers tonight.

Seriously, go to the ER - they'll do a soft-tissue lateral x-ray of your neck, locate it, and then remove with forceps or long tweezers.  This shit can get serious.  Trust me.

Kidding aside...maybe it just irritated your throat but it's not really there anymore?

Possibly, but it don't feel like it very much. The fucker ( or procelain cowboy as p806 called it ) could have staked itself down there, and just gotten out.

I'm going to try and heave, give it till' morning, then get some more help from some doc.

BRB - to be updated.

EDIT - Have mastered the art of heaving at will, offending shell still entrenched in there.

Waiting till' sunrise to see what the hell is down there.

You sure its just not an irritated throat making you think there is something stuck there, when it fact, its just scraped up?
Link Posted: 10/12/2004 6:07:42 PM EDT

Quick,

Get to the garage, ok now lay your neck down on the table and start to hummmmm.  Ok now grab that 3lb sledge hanging on the wall ok good.  Now this is the important part smash your neck 3 or 4 times and bust up that shell or its going to tear you a new asshole!

I DON'T know. Not sure about anything. Again, I'll give it to the morning to either settle the hell down and quit annoying me, or I'll go to the docs office if it dont.

As for the sledgehammer thing... It isn't quite descriptive enough. Please demonstrate.

Hopefully, it wont dislodge while you are asleep and choke you to death. Sleep sitting up or something.

If you have a good medical plan, I gotta +1 for the ER.

Next time, consider peeling the damn things first.  They evolved the exoskeleton to discourage predators, end we evolved the opposing digits to defeat such armor.  Good luck- Seriously

911 - it could change positions and choke you. This would not be good while driving. Have a friend or neighbor drive you.
