The Unsuspected Inhaled Object

I was taught that if my baby seems to choke on something and then with or without treatment seems better, I should watch carefully for any signs of continued problems such as an unusual tone when crying or talking; decreased breathing sounds; wheezing; unexplained coughing; or blueness around the lips or fingernails, or of the skin generally. That if any of these signs is apparent, I must take baby immediately to the emergency room. It is possible that an object has lodged in the lower respiratory tract.
