Air Buble behind lungs ? Posted: 06-05-07 16:42pm
Hi, last nigt after I ate an apple, you
know when you get that feeling when you
eat a large piece of apple and it feels
like it goes down your back. Well I felt
like something, I don't know if it was a
piece of apple or an air bubble, but it
felt really strange and felt like it
lodged somehow behind my lung at my back,
and then it was slightly hard to breath
like the pressure was causing slight pain
to breath because of this bubble or
whatever it was. And the feeling never
went away it's still with me now, I
couldn't sleep very well and now my neck
is sore from the pressure that was built
up from the bubble or whatever it was, the
pain has not gone away of which I thought
it would over night. I don't want to go
to the doctors because it's so expensive
and I'm in dept like 1300 dollars on my
credit card. Can anyone help me, this is
really weird. I feel like if I stabbed a
sharp knife through my stirnim that I
would pop the pressure bubble or whatever
it is and everything would go back to
normal and my neck wouldn't hurt anymore.

If the apple really ended up in your
lungs, you'd instantly start having
trouble breathing, not to mention you'd
have some serious gagging, just like any
other time where something enters your
windpipe that shouldn't.
However, this is certainly a concern. I'm
only an ambulance attendant, not a doctor,
so I'm really not sure what exactly your
problem is. Either way though, YOUR
HEALTH IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITY! Don't
worry about your credit card debt, pardon
the way I'm putting this, but it won't
matter how much debt you have if something
happens to you.
I suggest that you go to your local
hospital emergency room to get this
checked out.
