taco shell irritating and stuck

[jamie1213]

I was eating tacos last night and the taco got stuck for a second I was able to force most of it down but it seems there is still a piece stuck in the left side of my throat what should I do? I drank water, ate bread, I even drank warm water??

You probably caused an abrasion to your throat.  I have done this a few times with those free chips at mexican restaurants.  It took about 4-5  days to heal.  If it gets worse or lasts longer than 4-5 days visit a doc to make sure its ok.

This sounds like you bruised the inside of your neck. This happens to me a lot with sharper items. It feels like it's there, but it just temporarily bruised it. If it doesnt go away in a couple of days, be concerned, but with me, it lasts maybe a day.
