Airway blockage occurs when the airway is partially or completely obstructed, making it difficult or impossible to breathe. This can be caused by various factors, such as an allergic reaction, a foreign object blocking the airway, swelling from an injury or infection, or a medical condition like asthma or sleep apnea.
Symptoms of airway blockage can include difficulty breathing, wheezing, coughing, chest pain, and a feeling of suffocation. In severe cases, it can lead to a lack of oxygen in the body, which can result in unconsciousness or death.
Treatment for airway blockage depends on the cause and severity of the obstruction. In some cases, immediate intervention may be needed to clear the airway, such as performing the Heimlich maneuver for choking or using an inhaler for an asthma attack. In more serious cases, emergency medical attention may be required to open the airway and restore proper breathing. It is important to seek prompt medical help if you or someone else is experiencing symptoms of airway blockage.
