Hero dentist saves man with food stuck in trachea

Saraburi, A hero dentist opens up about helping a man with food stuck in his windpipe, and recommends checking his dental health and reviewing first aid to help when someone finds food stuck in their throat. A surveillance camera at a chicken rice shop in Saraburi Province captured a life-threatening moment when a male customer choked on his food and could not breathe. At that time, another female customer, later identified as a dentist, saw what was happening and went to help, taking turns with the shop owner who also went to help, until he was successfully rescued. Reporters went to Muak Lek Hospital in Saraburi Province to talk to Dentist Wiphawee Patiwet, a super hero doctor. She said that while she was sitting and eating, the man stood up, put his hands around his throat, and tried to cough, but there was no sound. He couldn't cough. Then she noticed that his face was starting to look bad. She stood up without thinking about it. She knew that something was stuck in his throat, so she got up and went t o help him immediately. Dr. Wipawee added that this type of incident often occurs with young children and the elderly, but in this case, the victim was a middle-aged person. She thought that there might be a problem with his teeth or he lost his teeth, which made his food not chew properly. As a dentist, she would like to recommend that everyone take care of their dental health, so that it will help in chewing food and prevent this type of incident from happening. She also wants everyone to review first aid like this so that it can help the people we love and help people in general like this. Source: Thai News Agency
