Copy of Coughing is the Body’s Natural Response. But Let’s Learn More…

Coughing is the body's response when the airway is irritated. Most of the time, the cough will clear the irritant and the person either swallows or spits out the substance.

But what if things get worse not better? This video is the 3rd in a series on choking, how to relieve choking, or how to care for someone who thinks they are choking when they aren't.

The assessment for all of this starts with coughing. Can they or can't they? That is the question.

Also, a familiar theme of Comfort-care (highlighted in detail in my Playlist: The First 7 Essential Items in My First Aid kit) will offer helpful understanding in how to care for someone who might be choking.
