What happends if your food goes down into your trachea?
The trachea is commonly called the windpipe. It is covered by the epiglottis so when a person swallows food it does NOT go into the trachea. If food enters the trachea it can clog it completely and cause a person to choke to death. If the food goes down the trachea, it can lodge in the main windpipe. If the food manages to go further, it could go to the right or left side when the trachea divides into the right and left bronchi. Air could be blocked past the food which would cause the person to suffocate. If food enters the trachea, it generally causes a person to cough. Hopefully, the person will cough forcefully enough to remove the food. If they do not, this is when the Heimlich maneuver needs to be performed in which a person stands behind the victim and helps them force air out of the lungs with a quick hugging type maneuver.
