How to judge foreign body entering trachea?

Foreign body entering stage: the patients are more likely to have sudden cough, severe cough, choking, wheezing, hoarseness, cyanosis and dyspnea during eating. For small and smooth active foreign bodies, such as melon seeds and corn kernels, the slapping sound of foreign body hitting the glottis can be heard when the patients cough,

If the foreign body is large, obstructs the trachea or close to the carina of the trachea branch, the ventilation of the main bronchi on both sides will be seriously obstructed, resulting in severe dyspnea, even asphyxia and death

Quiet period: if the foreign body is small, irritant, or the foreign body enters the bronchus through the air tube, the symptoms of cough and suffocation can be very slight or even disappear within a period of time. The long or short asymptomatic period makes the diagnosis easy to be neglected
