Pill in throat
I've been taking medication for a cough that I've been having. The pill is pretty tiny. Yesterday I took it and I drank some water but it felt like the pill was stuck. I didn't try anything because sometimes it feels like that and then goes away. But I woke up in the middle of the night with a lot of pain in the right side of my chest and it feels like the pill is still there and it hurts to swallow or burp.

Pills usually dissolve and should not be stuck anywhere. Please cost an ENT and get checked.
