A fish bone (foreign body) in the throat is a common presentation in an otolaryngology practice. Commonly the fish bone can be visualized and removed in a clinic setting. More distal foreign body impaction such as at the cricopharyngeus level will need direct laryngoscopy and removal under general anesthesia. It is not uncommon to have patient presented with residual symptom of post foreign body ingestion. Findings such as traumatized mucosa and embedded bone with slough on the mucosal surface are commonly encountered. We report a case of post foreign body ingestion presented with odynophagia and laryngoscopy showed a partially swollen epiglottis. The symptom recovered with conservative management.
