If a choking victim is coughing, you should encourage them to continue coughing forcefully, as this can help expel the object blocking their airway. Do not intervene unless the coughing becomes ineffective or the person cannot breathe, speak, or make sounds. In such cases, you can administer back blows and abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) to help dislodge the obstruction. Always call for emergency assistance if the situation does not improve.
