I accidentally inhaled some psyllium husk water 2 days ago. I coughed a lot intentionally to get it out. Since then I am having some throat irritation that is making me cough sometimes. I do not have any symptoms of pneumonia. Can this cellulose foreign body get stuck in lungs? Or will it be cleared out? I am worried.

We can give you bronchdilator nd mucolytic to make it easier for husk to pass out with mucus through cough if it has gone inside bronchus. Otherwise do not worry it can not harm you much.
