Accidentally, I ate a small piece of paper. What to do now?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand that you are currently facing some sensitive issues, but I want to assure you that there is nothing you cannot manage.

The problem you are experiencing is due to the raw, dry paper surface and the chemicals it contains, which cause irritation and denude the superficial layer (mucosa) of your throat. This is why you still feel as if there is a piece of paper in your throat.

To alleviate your symptoms faster, I would recommend the following:

• Gargling with lukewarm water mixed with salt five to six times a day. Try to allow the water to reach as deep into your throat as possible. This will provide soothing relief to your throat.
• Additionally, you can take an allergy tablet like Loratadine twice a day for only three days.
• If you experience pain, you can take Ibuprofen 400 mg twice a day after meals.

However, it is important to consult your specialist doctor, discuss the situation with them, and take the medicine with their consent.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
