Question

I was eating dinner tonight and ended up coughing with food still in my mouth. Now I feel like there might be a tiny piece of food stuck in my sinus area because it mildly burns, and I've been producing quite a lot of mucus. Should I just wait for it to clear up on its own, or do you think I should see a doctor?

That would go on its own, do salt water gargling twice a day,if it's becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.
