Me: at 3 am trying to sleep
My brain: how do I save someone from choking?

[shelbyesters]

Firefighter here. If someone's recovered from choking, do not let them drink anything for 30 minutes. The throat is irritated and it could cause swelling. Give it 30 minutes before offering them a drink.

Thank for the training we almost lost our father during Christmas eve but thank God my young brother was trained and he saved his live.

Imagine if this guy was actually choking and the instructor was just standing there explaining how to help

[M.C.Blackwell]

Someone saved my life with the Heimlich maneuver and I'm forever grateful.

Someone is choking:

:Are you chocking?
:Can i help you?
:What's your name?
:What's your favorite anime?
:Are you a marvel fan?

I do not normally comment but I wanted to bring something to the groups attention that happened to me tonight. I have a younger sister she is moderately autistic and has epileptic seizures. Tonight she was eating and she started convulsing when she did her food lodged fully in her throat and she stopped breathing. I had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on her while she was in mid seizure. I had got first aid certified years ago. In the moment I doubted if I could still remember what to do. I think part of it was instinct that helped guide my memory on what to do. I laid her on her left side and placed one fist on her belly button and rolled in up and placed the other one beside it and pushed in and up a few seconds later the food came dislodged and I was able to clean the food from her mouth as she began to cough. I wanted to share this because many do not experience what to do if the person chocking is having a seizure nor does training mention it. I hope this helps someone should they ever encounter a seizure patient chocking on food.

That happened to me and I nearly died, if it wasn’t because of my hero who came to my rescue just in time, and had the intuition that something was wrong as we were in a big house and he was upstairs, I was downstairs. I couldn’t make a sound to call for help as everything was blocked. If I was alone, I wouldn’t know what to do, I’d be dead.

Choking isn't always a total blockage, sometimes the thing you're choking on, i choked on a tiny piece of meat, it got caught in my throat, when i took a breath, it went into my airway pipe, and my whole breathing airway wasn't blocked, but as i tried to breath, it was moving down in further. Your body reacts quickly without you. I kept trying to cough it out but I couldn't pull in enough air to build up pressure and then cough to dislodge it. But that didn't happen, i had a tiny bit of space between the food and airway but not enough to breath, and i was so afraid to breath in hard, it would go down deeper. Suddenly my body is making me heave and gag, i knew there was only a small amount of air left in my lungs, so when my body went to gag reflex i used that to push the air pit as hard as i could. And yes, thank you world, that tiny piece of meat flew to the other side of the my kitchen. Oh and not only a gag reflex i had vomited quite a lot. After the block was gone, i still kept gagging for a while after. My lungs hurt for about a day. But thankfully, no pneumonia, which can result from choking

My mom was chocking and only i was there. I've already seen online about saving someone from choking. So i tried the same and some how saved my mom.. Thank God for giving me hopes and courage at that time.

I had taken one CPR/first aid training course a few years ago for my job as a teacher. Literally the day before my certificate renewal about 2 years since I had gotten my certificate the first time my mother in law was choking on a sandwich and could not breathe. I remember seeing the look of horror on her face as she was holding her throat as I was sitting with my fiancé and his dad on the couch. I yelled “SHE’S CHOKING SHE’S CHOKING” and sprinted to her to do the Heimlich Maneuver out of instinct from what I learned.
I firmly believe everyone, especially parents, should take a CPR/first aid course because you never know what could happen and it’s useful to know this information.

I'm not sure if I remember this correctly, but in a wilderness first aid course I took, the instructors mentioned that if the patient was chocking that badly (like needing abdominal thrust) but the object comes out, it's still an evacuation (maybe no helicopter), in case the object causes airway swelling or remaining crumbs cause lung infection. No they are not going to continue that 18-day hike into nowhere.
