We all have had this experience whereby a person near us or we personally have choked to a point we thought "this is the end". Maybe I am exaggerating a little bit too much but you get what I mean.

So what do you do when a person is choking and getting all tense and red?

If the person is choking but still able to talk or cough, please and please do not intervene! Let them try to get it out themselves. The fact that they are still able to cough means that air is in the airway and that there is only a partial obstruction.


If you then try to intervene, you could disrupt the airflow and cause a major obstruction. (we don't want to see the Coffin Dance guys now, do we?)

The only time you can help is when the airway is blocked and the person requires some help, then you can administer some gentle back blows.
