If you are choking will forcing vomit stop the choking
When choking, the airway is obstructed, making it difficult to breathe. Forcing vomit is not an effective way to remove the obstruction. In fact, it can worsen the situation by forcing the object further down the airway.
If you are choking, the Heimlich maneuver should be performed immediately. This involves standing behind the person who is choking and wrapping your arms around their waist. Make a fist with one hand and place the thumb side against the person's abdomen, just above the navel. Grasp your fist with your other hand and pull inward and upward with quick, forceful thrusts.
If the Heimlich maneuver is not successful, you should call for emergency medical help.
