New Delhi: Delhi’s All India Institute Of Medical Sciences recently issued a warning, after a man lost his life after choking on a momo. AIIMS recently published a report in the journal Forensic Imaging where it explained a rare case of a man dying after choking on a momo. The man was in his 50s.
During the post-mortem, it was revealed that the momo got lodged in the opening of the windpipe. This is why doctors concluded that he died of choking on the dish. The experts issued ‘swallow with care’ warning after this case came to light.
The doctors further concluded that it is the slippery texture and small shape of the momo that might lead to such problems. Hence, we must chew the momos properly before swallowing them.
