Sunday I choked on tiny bits of tuna fish that i swallowed properly - but inhaled them back up inside the trachea.
I coughed and it got better, but we're now 2 days later and it still feels like there is some food stuck in there.
I have had an x-ray yesterday, but it did not detect any pneumonia.
But... bits of food an x-ray can not detect.
-Does food in the bronchi always cause pneumonia?
-If there is food in there and it hasn't caused pneumonia in the first 10 days or so,
could it still cause pneumonia sometime later on?
I feel a sharp stabbing feeling permanently present in my right lung,
the pain is very bearable but it doesn't feel healthy at all.
The feeling becomes more intense when inhaling deeply, doing exercise or having extended conversations with people.

Am i imagining something is still stuck in my bronchus
or could there really be something there?
