After eating a fish bone, the dentist at the clinic said two possibilities

Whether there are fish bones cannot be guessed out of thin air. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital to see the ENT department. If the fish bones cannot be seen with the laryngoscope, it is best to go to the radiology department for an esophageal barium swallow examination. If there are fish bones, they can be seen. The barium cotton hangs on the fish bone. If the fish bone is relatively small, it may be swallowed together with the barium cotton when swallowing, and it will be fine. If a relatively large fish bone is stuck in the esophagus, it will be more troublesome and may require surgery to remove the fish bone. If no fish bones are found after swallowing barium cotton, there are two possibilities. One is that the fish bones are very small and the barium cotton cannot be hung up. The other is that the fish bones scratch the esophagus and cause pain or foreign body sensation. Both of these are good. . I am a senior radiologist. During the barium swallow examination, I found many foreign bodies in the esophagus, including fish bones, chicken bones and even bacon.
