Fish often stars in exquisite dishes in our cuisine, but - why not say it - it can also pose a danger to our throat. Its spines can be accidentally ingested and become stuck or adhered at some point in the digestive tract.
There are certain foods that can help lower the spine easily into the stomach, where it will be eliminated by gastric juices.
