Choking is a medical emergency. When a person is choking, air cannot reach the lungs. If the airways cannot be cleared, death follows rapidly.
For a conscious person experiencing partial choking, it's important to encourage them to cough forcefully to try to dislodge the object. If coughing is ineffective and they show signs of distress, you can offer support and monitor their condition while calling for emergency help if necessary. Avoid performing back blows or abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) unless the person progresses to complete choking. Always stay calm and reassure them until help arrives or the obstruction is resolved.
To help someone who is choking, perform the Heimlich maneuver by standing behind them, wrapping your arms around their waist, and giving quick upward thrusts to their abdomen until the object is dislodged. If the person is unable to breathe or loses consciousness, call 911 immediately.
