How do i get a hair out of my throat?

Question

I swollowed a hair yesterday and i cant seem to get it out of my throat. What are some things i can do to make it go down? I've been eating a lot of bread because i heard that helps it go down but its not helping much. any other ideas?!

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

You need to un-adhere the hair. Bread will not work as bread can act as glue. Try taking small sips of olive oil to coat your throat, then take big sips of either apple cider vinegar or fresh lemon juice. This will make the oil float on top of the vinegar/lemon juice and with it the hair should then float too. You can either just swallow the hair down or if possible remove it from the back of your throat with your fingernails if it is still there. You may have to cough a few times to get it reachable. But, make sure that you wash your hands/fingers well with anti-bacterial soap first.

This worked for me when I had the same problem a bit ago.
