So, I am completely new to all this, but I decided to try parachuting a few grams of powdered kratom using a small and very thin piece of facial tissue (cheap/weak kleenex, split off 1 ply) and I was able to swallow it, but it appears to now be stuck in my esophagus. I can't eat or drink of anything without it coming back up almost immediately, and I have a pretty bad pain in my upper chest.

I've tried taking small sips of water, soda, and milk, but nothing helps. I tried sticking my finger down my throat to induce vomiting, and some of the powder did come out, but I still can't swallow anything. IS THIS AN EMERGENCY??? The time is about 4:00 AM here, should I go to the ER? Or should it just pass on it's own naturally? I'm a little concerned about not being able to take a drink or anything right now.

hey friend, take a deep breath and relax. it will eventually breakdown and you will be fine, but it may take a moment. you probably bruised the lining of you esophagus trying to swallow something so dry and big and there actually might not be anything sticking there anymore. just hang in there and keep trying to send some liquids that way, perhaps something acidic such as apple cider vinegar diluted in water, to help break it up. as long as it's not blocking your airway then you will be OK. you might feel the bruising for a couple of days afterwards even, but you will be fine. inducing vomiting is a good idea, as the stomach acid might wipe it out, but be careful, just be careful.

if it really doesn't go away after an uncomfortably long time then yeah, head for a doctor's office eventually.

and for the record, parachuting is a dumb idea, for this very reason. humans aren't meant to eat things like paper. there is nothing wrong with just pouring a heaping spoonful of something like kratom directly into your mouth and washing it down with a nice glass of pomegranate juice (i did this less than an hour ago in fact:). a little bitterness won't kill you, but choking on a kleenex might.

Yes, or you can buy a bag of empty capsules for like $5
