The capsule is stuck in my throat, I can't swallow it and I can't vomit it out.

Patient's question:

My mom took two soft capsules two days ago. She might have felt uncomfortable in her throat after drinking hot water, as if something was blocking her esophagus. It hasn't improved after two days, and she vomits when eating. What should she do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello
According to the situation you mentioned, if your symptoms can be ruled out as the possibility of the capsule shell sticking to the esophagus.
Suggestions: If it has been this long, even if it stuck to the esophagus, it should have dissolved by now.
Recommendation: Check the condition of the esophagus and stomach
The above is for reference only.
Wishing you good health.
