How can I remove a hair that is stuck in my throat?

I have had few patients come to me with this very problem, and as any good doctor would do, I researched into this matter with great enthusiasm and I am pleased of my result.

It is reccomended that you eat a lot of bread, and drink a lot, preferably milk. (Milk contains calcium, also known as 'Ca', which can dilate the amount of folatisodinating acid which is found in the membranes of the hair.

The fine duxlations of multicellular contoxapies will endure fixation when bread (and/or liquid) is taken down the throat. The berimiters of the hair will become very granuble and break down the barriers, leaving it to dissolve. However, this process may take a while and patience is required (it may take up to 3 weeks, but it is worth it).

This is not a life threatening situation. The stermidable salinatates found in mucous glands will eventually, over time, break down the hair. Resulting in a 6month wait.

You could also physically remove the hair, however, some people do not like the discomfort of this procedure and I would advise using my other suggestions as above.

All the best,

Dr. J Khaghn

bread and water...and make him shave next time.

You should swallow spoonful wheat flour and then gargle water and swallow all of it. Water mixes with flour and hair gets stuck in mixture and goes inside your stomach.

There is a virus that makes it feel like you have a hair stuck in the back of your throat, an irritating sensation. That's what a very good doctor and great diagnostician told me once. I swore it was an actual hair, and he looked with his light, but there was nothing. It went away on its own. I don't remember what the virus name was. Why doesn't anyone know what my doctor knew? I know diagnosis is an art and a science, but, still, WTF? That's why TV shows like "House" are a joke. In real life, those people would be dead. I have had it a couple of times since then and I have it again, which is how I got here. I was hoping to find some info on it. I suggest people use Zicam brand oral spray and spray it under your tongue, on the inside of both cheeks, and the back of your throat. That should fix it in a few days or a week or so. (the other forms of Zicam don't work as well imo) http://www.zicam.com/products/coldremedy_plus_oralmist

I had cat hair stuck in my thoat for weeks driving me nuts. So i tried eating quaker harvest ckrunch in a bowl with milk, its hard to do but dont chew it up much and swallow it hard and whole. it taste better than dry bread! u might get a little grain stuck in your throat, BUT ITS SO MUCH BETTER THAN F'ING CAT HAIR!!!!

I have the same problem since 5 days ago and I'm growing MAAAAADDDDDDDD!!!!!!! My throat aches and no matter what i do the cat hair is still stuck to it. Which one of these 834 advices would you recommend following? I live outside the States so Round table's original crust chicken garlic pizza is not an option to me. What shall I do?

coca cola and bread. the acid in coke will help weaken the hair, while the bread pushes it down. Be sure to eat the bread dry, as in separately. After you finish the coke. Hope that helps.

i have had this problem ever since i can remember. usually, a quick hack will get it loose, but i've had some, like last week, where i end up nearly passing out since it affects the air passage and causes me to gag. it's really embarressing in some situations. i can't talk, i can't breathe right. the one that i finally dislodged by hacking last week was almost an inch long. it was white -- so i don't know where it came from. i've asked folks about this in the past, and i get a look like i told them their hair was on fire. (pardon the pun). so will try the bread thing next time.

go to the dentist for a hair cut!

i dont know but im very scared as a fact i have tried eating dry bread and drinking water

gargle with a liquid hair remover then rinse thoroughly... If it says harmful or fatal if swallowed then i would consult a psychiatrist about why you risk it before contacting a physician to see how harmful swallowing just a little is

Dear Doctor Khagh

I have never heard about folatisodinating acid:

Your comment looks suspicious to me

I hope somebody can provide some more information about it...

with a long stick

Drink some water.

Go to the doctor if bread does not work......
they can numb the area and take it out ...

try a spoon of peanutbutter

bread and water

bread and water

eat dry bread that always works for me when that happens.

Go to the doctor. Immediately!

******take 50 ml water in a bowl, then take a knife and cut the water as if u r cutting it into 4 pieces, and swallow the water. ull find the hair gone away after 3- 4 hrs.
i m telling you practically

yes u can

Do gargles 3 times a day. I don't know how that hair got there and don't swallow it! It can cause damage in your stomach and it can stay there for a long time. If nothing works go to the hospital! Hope I helped=)

Thanks for the advice... but I've already tried that. My doctor said that he really couldn't give me any advice, other than to drink a lot of water to try to flush it down. He said that if I waited long enough.. the hair would eventually be dissolved.

Coat an orange slice, or lemon slice if you prefer, with crushed red pepper (you know, the kind you get when you order pizza). Yes, I know, you'll be burning, but trust me, this will work. Then, proceed to drink 3/4 cup hot water with 1/4 cup white vinegar. Mix in honey or sugar for desired taste. If needed, use a steam inhaler to further clear you throat.
P.S. I am allergic to pet hair, which I happened to inhale through my mouth. I don't know what other hair you would be referring to that would be in your throat. Hope this works.

It was 4 days of trying everything to get the hair out of my throat. Pretzels, bread, water, gargleing, crackers, toothbrush, olive oil, and honey. I was at the point that I was going to use my cat's hair ball paste!! What finally worked was 4 pieces of Round table's original crust chicken garlic pizza!!!

Good luck to you all!!!

Eat dry crackers.
