Your tongue cannot suffocate you in the traditional sense, as it is a muscular organ that does not obstruct the airway in a way that would prevent breathing. However, in certain situations, such as during a seizure or if someone is unconscious, the tongue can fall back and partially block the throat, potentially leading to airway obstruction. This is why it's important to position individuals correctly if they are at risk of losing consciousness.
