What are the 3 types of choking

[DigitalExplorer]

I'm having trouble understanding the three types of choking and was hoping someone could help me out. I know that choking can be done intentionally, but I'm unsure of the other two types. Can someone explain the three different types of choking and provide examples of each? I'm feeling a bit confused and would really appreciate some help.

1. Airway Obstruction Choking

Airway obstruction choking is the most common type of choking. It occurs when a foreign object, such as a piece of food or a toy, becomes lodged in the person’s throat or windpipe and blocks the airway. This type of choking can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention.

2. Esophageal Choking

Esophageal choking occurs when a person swallows an object that gets stuck in the esophagus, the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach. This type of choking can be very serious and requires medical attention.

3. Psychological Choking

Psychological choking is a type of choking that is caused by anxiety and fear. It occurs when a person becomes so nervous that they are unable to perform the task they are trying to do. This type of choking can lead to a decrease in performance and can be very frustrating and embarrassing.
