Dysphagia following tablet ingestion: A Case Report Of Unusual Foreign Body

2007 
A foreign body in the cricopharynx causes severe discomfort to the patient and is a potential threat to the airway. There have been case reports of some unusual foreign bodies like press through package which is commonly used as a package for drugs, fork, drug filled packets, medicine bottle cap and blister wrapped tablet. This is a unique case report because of the fact that the foreign body tablet was not wrapped; even then it got impacted and led to dysphagia and odynophagia.
