Pill Stuck in Chest

2017-12-20 15:49:16
I got my wisdom teeth out 5 days ago and I’ve been taking antibiotics, specifically Clindamyacin. Two days ago, after taking the pill, it felt like it was stuck in my chest. The feeling stayed there until yesterday morning, when it got much worse. Every time I breathe I feel it and I cannot breathe deeply without pain, and anytime I eat anything, even as soft as pudding (and I can only eat soft foods because of the wisdom teeth) it is a sharp tight almost excruciating pain as the food goes down.
