How do you get stuck garlic out of your throat?

* Drink water: Swallowing the garlic clove is sometimes the easiest and most effective way to dislodge it. Try drinking a glass of water to swallow the garlic clove whole, or even better, a warm herbal tea.

* Eat bread or crackers: Eating a piece of bread or a cracker can help to push the garlic clove down your throat and into your stomach.

* Use a spoon: If the garlic clove is lodged part way down your throat, try using a spoon or a popsicle stick to push it gently down into your stomach. Be very gentle, as you do not want to damage or scratch the soft tissues of your throat or esophagus.

* Cough: If you can, try coughing to expel the garlic clove.

* Perform the Heimlich maneuver: If the garlic clove is blocking your airway and you are unable to breathe, perform the Heimlich maneuver on yourself.

* Seek medical help: If you are not able to dislodge the garlic clove on your own, or if you are having difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately.
