Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If back blows do not dislodge the blockage, stand behind them, join your hands around their tummy and form a fist. Pull your hands sharply inwards and upwards. Repeat up to five times. This is sometimes called the Heimlich manoeuvre or abdominal thrust.
Detailed explanation-2: -It is a technique to aid a person who is choking by applying rapid, quick thrusts to the person’s abdomen to lift the diaphragm and expel air from the lungs, causing the expulsion of the object lodged in the airway.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cough it out. Slap it out-5 back blows. Squeeze it out-5 abdominal thrusts. Check their mouth. Call 999 & repeat the actions.
