I'm a bit worried because during dinner I think a piece of food might've gone down my windpipe. I didn't have a choking fit or anything, but I did feel like at some point the food left my windpipe. Now it's got me wondering because I still feel like there's something stuck in my throat. Breathing and talking are fine, but I keep coughing since it feels like something's in there. Is it possible I might've just coughed it up and swallowed it, and my throat's just irritated?

Yes you are right,that coul be because of irritation nothing else,because windpipe cannot accomodate anything other than air,hence no need to worry,consume warm foods untill you feel better.

View allI've been dealing with this dry cough for the past 10 days and I went to see a doctor. They gave me antibiotics and anti-allergy meds, but I'm not seeing any improvement. The doctor checked and said my chest and throat are clear. A few days ago, they suggested I use betadine solution for gargling, but my voice is still blocked and this dry cough just won't go away. Any idea what might be going on or what else I should try?
. Rest. Get plenty of sleep and rest your voice. Drink fluids. Drink plenty of water to keep the throat moist and prevent dehydration. Try comforting foods and beverage. Warm liquids broth, caffeine-free tea or warm water with honey and cold treats such as ice pops can soothe a sore throat. Gargle saltwater. A saltwater gargle of 1 teaspoon. Gargle the solution and then spit it out.

I keep getting these small whitish yellow stones on my tonsils is there any way to stop them without surgery or is surgery the only option
Yes, it's possible to reduce or prevent tonsil stones without surgery. Improving oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and using an antibacterial mouthwash, can significantly minimize their formation. Additional methods like gargling with warm saltwater or using a water pick can help dislodge existing stones
