If a child is choking and unable to cough, speak, or breathe, you should perform the Heimlich maneuver. For children over one year old, stand behind the child, make a fist just above their navel, and thrust inward and upward. For infants under one year, place them face down on your forearm and give five gentle back blows between the shoulder blades, followed by five chest thrusts. Always seek emergency medical assistance if the child is not able to breathe or if the obstruction is not cleared.
